Not long ago, my friend Fayeed released the video of his latest tune, "Follow the Sun". I was fortunate enough to have Fayeed invite me to do the drum track for this tune as well as the other tunes on his latest album! Here is his original video with my drum session running in parallel. HOPE YOU ENJOY IT!!
