Steve Gadd is over in the UK this week as part of the rescheduled Mission From Gadd tour. Take a look below to see the kind of skills you can expect to see at the shows…
The drum legend has the following clinics lined up over the next few days:
6 September: Dublin
7 September: Manchester

We were lucky enough to catch Gadd's Reading show on Friday, and it was a real treat - two hours of masterful playing and advice from the man himself. To get an idea of what you can expect, check out this classic Gadd solo.
