Rodney Holmes is a monster drummer. He’s been on the gig with some of the most monster musicians too: Carlos Santana, Jim Weider, the Brecker Brothers, Steve Kimock, the list goes on…But Rodney also writes his own music as well. He put out an album years ago called “Twelve Months of October” that is packed with great tunes AND great chops, two things that don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Apparently Rodney has more new tunes in the can with a new album coming out soon called “Axoim.” We can’t wait to hear it. This song, “Hipster Killer,” is from that yet-to-be-released album. Aside from taking the gold home for the best song title of the year, Rodney gets our thumbs up for a GREAT tune that has so many great elements to it.
