Each video on this channel features a high-quality audio and video recording in which I perform a song in its entirety. I strive to capture the energy and spirit of the original track, emulating and paying homage to legendary drummers, and adding my own interpretation when appropriate. All drums are played live by me, Matthew Huskey, and no triggering is used.
I strive to inspire and teach other players. I want to share my knowledge and experience with others who are passionate about drumming. Hopefully, I can contribute in my own small way in the continuing process of inspiring a new generation of drummers to continue the legacy of this incredible instrument.

Perfect movement of the percussion through all the changes in tempo and emphasis; strong performance! This is excellent.

[@Gaddiments]

Your cover was really well done! Everything was very tastefully played with great use of dynamics!

[@huskeydrums]

Thank you, my friend! I appreciate the kind words!!

[@vanessasmusicbox]

Love this song and I was really curious how you´d manage to make an interesting drum cover out of it and you really nailed it! Love the smooth shuffle sound you have and the percussion you've used! That has been awesome!

[@huskeydrums]

That's incredibly kind of you to say and it means a lot to hear it from you! Jason Mraz created a beautiful song, but I always wished it had a drum kit part instead of just percussion. I did my best to enhance the song and make it interesting on drums, but never overpowering the song. Thank you so much!!!

@@huskeydrums You made that perfectly! I really love it!
