Hello. My name is Craig Reynolds, I play the drums in a band called Stray From The Path and this podcast is basically a series of relaxed conversations with people who are mostly other musicians, artists and/or idiots/legends. Enjoy.

    Big fan
    I love the show. Love the merch. A great listen.
  • Jacobbennett53
    One of the best music podcasts out there!
    Craig is a funny dude and has a very good lineup of guests. Even listening to episodes with artists I don’t normally listen to it’s made me appreciate them much more and definitely made me branch out my music tastes and discover some sick bands 🤘🏼
  • HeavenFayeMathis
    Sucha good listen!
    Craig Reynolds’s is HILARIOUS! I love how chill and easy it is to listen to this podcast! I’ve been listening to episodes while I’m at work this past month. I wish I started listening sooner! 🫶🏻

    Craig is getting better at podcasting
    Been a listener since the first episode. Good questions, good guests, good times. This is not a drumming podcast.
  • KaiPainter406

    I like to listen and picture Craig cross dressed the whole time. If I don’t then I just can’t listen.

    Not just music
    Love how Creg (yes, I know) can talk music, mental health, comedy and tattoos and keep it all so entertaining.
  • Todd478756
    Really Great
    This is my favorite “metal” podcast. Great conversations and a great behind the scenes look at touring musicians.

    10/10
    Would give 10 stars if I could. Craig is a super engaging and fun host. One of the few podcasts I can binge without getting bored of the content!

  • TIMintheBOX
    This podcast is fun
    I dig how casual the host is. Stray are sick. Will probably buy a shirt.
  • MrTimmons
    Best drumming pod
    I love this podcast. Greg is so upfront about who he is. There’s no censoring. He usually says what he feels and I love that. He’s very knowledgeable and his guests are generally interesting.
  • moxeydrums
    Craig is one of the best dudes out there
    He rules all around ! Insane drummer .
  • LordBeleg_
    Fantastic
    I love this! Keep ‘me coming Craig!
  • JZ_of_RomeApart
    New favorite!!!
    Love this podcast. It’s great to get a really relaxed and intimate perspective on many of my drumming heroes. Thank Craig, great format man!
  • Cabub H
    Craig is God.
    Listen to Craig. Follow Craig. He is amazing. Much love to him and everyone on this podcast.
  • Elio D.
    Excellent podcast !!!
    Craig is a great drummer, however, I believe he could make a living as a comedian if he ever gave up drumming. The downbeat offers a very interesting view into the world of touring musicians and Craig’s sense of humor takes this podcast to another level. Must listen. I’m hooked on The Downbeat !

    Awesome Drumming Podcast
    Am I out of my tree, or does Craig sound a bit like Dominic West? PS - I think Aric Improta would make for a great interview... PSS - One suggestion: Play music in the background during the interview. The noise gate on the mics is a nice touch, but I keep looking at my phone thinking the audio keeps shutting off...
  • Klistoff
    Great Podcast!
    My favorite drum centered podcast right now! I love that Craig gets into all the nerdy drum gear talk. This podcast is brilliant. I’d love to hear an interview with Adam Gray or the Orlando Drummer would be cool too. Cheers

  • The Worst Puerto Rican Ever
    Awesome drum speak and dry humor
    This show is great for both the talk of drums and super dry super sarcastic humor. And the guests are great. This is the podcast drummers and fans of metal have been waiting for.
  • kitbenzband
    Love it but...
    TALK ABOUT MESHUGGAH MORE
  • gralter?
    What it is to grustle
    What is grustle? Well, what ISNT Grustle? Grustle is everything and nothing at the same time. So to all the grinders, the hustlers, the grustlers, listen.
  • Mr.Wessumz
    Yeeessssss
    As a drummer, you've gotta do yourself a favor and check these out. Its fantastic to get an insight from some of the best, and it's essentially drumming bro's just hanging out and cracking jokes while getting deep and real. 100% worth it.
  • Jatchison25
    The Best
    Craig is one of the sickest drummers around, exceptionally hilarious and offers great insights into the world of career drumming.
  • Dean12543
    Not Shinfo - thankfully
    If you’re looking for a podcast that is focused around drumming and drummers in general but doesn’t take itself too seriously, this is the podcast for you. This podcast is loaded with valuable insight backed by experience that’s also quite entertaining to listen to. If you’re expecting a podcast that spends two hours talking about the physics behind suspend mounting your rack tom verses having it poke out of your kick drum like some a**hat, you’ll probably want to move on. But... if you want to hear actual touring drummers discuss drums and the business - and say c*** about a hundred times - boy do I have some good news for you.
