Nic Collins is the son of drumming superstar Phil Collins -- but Nic has earned his place playing drums with Genesis, Mike & The Mechanics, as well as his own project Better Strangers. He has quickly established himself on his own talent and gained praise from longtime Phil Collins band members for his maturity in his playing and work ethic.
In this free hour-long lesson, Nic breaks down some of Genesis’ coolest grooves, talks about Phil Collins’ influences (from Santana to Bonham), shares a Taylor Hawkins story, demos some classic Simmons SDSV pads, and yes - he shows you the fill. The one you’re probably waiting for.

Phil Collins has lived three lifetimes. One as the one of the greatest rock and progressive musicians of the 70s. The second as one of the most successful and popular solo artists of the 80s and 90s, and now his third life, through his immensely talented son who seems to be able to replicate his parts immaculately, but with a fresh modern sensibility. Nic is awesome, can’t believe how brilliant and professional he is at his age.

@christopherp.hitchens3902 Год назад

@@RobTaylorDrums - The comment regarding Phil’s “Three lifetimes” was sufficiently nauseating, never mind inaccurate. These posts ignore the years of damage Phil did to himself and to music in general with his mind numbing SAMENESS. That he’s in a wheelchair now doesn’t change any of that. Of course, we all like what we like but what lay at the core of this echo chamber is personal NOSTALGIA. I am nostalgic for The Monkees because I was a kid when I first heard them. However, that doesn’t mean they were great. And neither was Phil Collins!

Good point that was made about 45 minutes in. Phil listened to what his bandmates were doing and his playing is always planted firmly in the melody. Between the basic 3-2-1 groove of "Apocalypse" and Tony playing at his own pace, there was a lot of improvisation going on.

While so much has been made about Nic's dad's live drumming prowess, people tend to forget how Nic's dad possessed and expended so much energy singing, doing tambourine dancing, and playing piano/keys (in his solo tour) in addition to playing drums for 2 hours in thousands of shows in one lifetime. The fact that his other "activities" on stage didn't affect his drumming (at least until the end of the 2007 Genesis tour). Bottom line is, energy-wise, Nic's dad was a BEAST, hands down. Mad respect.

I watched this again tonight, as I skimmed it the first time. Anyone who thinks Nic Collins is some sort of lite-beer drummer, who was some sort of expedient PR choice, doesn’t know what they are talking about. He is a PHENOMENAL drummer, and the way he breaks down these complex odd time parts - including slowing them down - shows how technically proficient he is. Brandon did great with this walk through, and I’ve had to completely reappraise my view of this young man. Very very impressive..

I see a humble, passionate person, adept at communicating and curious about exploring his own limits in order to overcome them and achieve new goals. Nic can be an inspiration to many new drummers and I hope he will bring new lustre to the immortal Collins brand and build something totally personal with which to be remembered by anyone who loves music and drums.

Was Phil overexposed in the ‘’80’s and ‘90’s? Maybe. He was a workaholic and obviously a hugely creative period for him. He was unbelievably talented as a writer, player and arranger. He was everywhere because he was a hit maker. It was both a blessing and a curse for him. The dude is as complete and exceptional of a musician as there has ever been while at the same time, humble and insecure, in many ways. No disrespect to Tony and Mike….both great musicians. But Phil was just a force of nature.

You hit the nail on the head when you talked about Phil's emotiveness behind the kit. It really set him out from the crowd of some intensely skilled drummers back in the 70s. He'd make you feel the music of the drums, not just the beat. It's no wonder he took to singing so well too, as that's really what separates the good singers from the great, at least in my book.

It has always been a favorite song, so beautiful & bittersweet. The instrumental section is one of my favorite Genesis instrumentals (along with "The Brazilian") . I'm with Nic in the disappointment that the full song wasn't part of Last Domino set list. That song always brings me to tears so I guess it was a good thing 🥺, being their last tour. I did cry but had they played the whole song, I would have been sobbing. That instrumental section is the musical version of the song's lyrics, a life. With it's highs, lows, thunderous moments and reflections. 🥰👏🥺❤ This video was fascinating to see & hear. Thank you Nic, Brandon & Drumeo. I also love the video ending, with Phil's Oscar & Golden Globe winning song, "You'll be in My Heart". Thanks again. 👏🌟 Happy New Year to everyone and wishing much success to Nic & Better Strangers. "Raincheck" is such a crushing song, in every way. 🌟🌟 Look forward to seeing Nic & his band reach the stars of success. 🙌🌟

What an amazing drummer and a beautifull, down to earth person Nic is. An example for people building their own personality (not easy, being "the son of"). Respect.

Finally have had time to view this, and what a legacy Phil has. All the best legend! Thank you for everything, and the future looks bright for Nic, Thank you for inspiring many. One of the greatest to ever do it, and truly one of a kind. 💙👑

Love this.. I grew up listening to Genesis. Best band ever..,and Phil's drumming was a massive part of the band. Thanks for this.❤️

Best drumming performance from Phil IMHO is Driving The Last Spike from Genesis. Phil wrote that 10 minutes song. Amazing stuff

@thomaspaccione7214 Год назад

I think that that is one of the most underrated Genesis songs out there, I love that song. I'm so happy that I got to see it live on the We Can't Dance Tour.

@djehuti3 Год назад

I agree with Nic, Wind and Wuthering is one of their best albums. One for the Vine is a top 5 song for me.

@chrisnewhall445 Год назад

Much respect on creating this fabulous video. I’ve followed Phil for 50 years and I thought an opportunity to hear and learn the grooves from source had been lost. Exquisite in every way, from the playing to the mature level-headed personalities and presentation involved. Very well done indeed and thank you so much.

@karlhoward2737 Год назад

Awesome….in your own right…….what talent……to have two Collins drummers on the planet, how blessed we all are….best drummers ever…Phil simply a wonderful human being……and now the Phoenix flies once more

Firth of Fifth and The Cinema Show have some of my favourite drumming of all time

@mattmckeon1688 Год назад

Behind the Lines is such a musical drum part. One of Phil's most memorable, IMO, even up there with Cinema Show and Firth of Fifth.

The 3SL version had me completely hooked. So precise and pretty fast too.

This is just outstanding to watch and learn how some of the most iconic music of my life and has been made by Nic Phil's son is just out of this world thank you

@markcouncil4688 Год назад

Nic has such massive shoes to fill, but he's definitely got his father's genes. What an honor for him and a treat for us!

I am proud to say that I saw this young man live with his dad and the band in Buffalo (2021), and he is the real deal. What a legacy! I look forward to following his career and wish him the very best.

@jasonleavitt7193 Год назад

Absolutely amazing interview. Nic you’re such a great drummer. Thank you so much for breaking down these iconic songs. Phil is my favorite drummer of all time. Also thank you Drumeo

@drummerkev1627 Год назад

I am so thankful you guys invited Nic to demo these classic live Genesis songs! I’ve seen them so many times live, but there are certain parts (especially In The Cage medley) I’ve been playing wrong all these years. Genesis was my first live concert back in 1978 and I was completely blown away. Side stage lower balcony front row right by Phil Collins. You guys have no idea how much I appreciate this! Thank you Nic and Brandon! 👏 👏 👏 Drumeo member KevnT383838

Cinema Show was one of my favorite songs of the Last Domino tour! Wonderful to see Nic playing it here, brings back great memories of seeing that masterpiece played live.

@darklordlc Год назад

This is exceptional. His ghost notes and left foot technique is great. While it is sad that Phil can’t play any longer it’s amazing to see his legacy passed on in his son. Also, Phil’s parts are amazing. One of the true great drummers.

@markf7066 Год назад

This was just wonderful. Take away the drumming…Nic just seems like such a nice guy! And … a superb drummer! I can’t imagine how proud Phil is of him to not only follow in his footsteps…but to literally learn all of these songs and perform with the band his Dad formed many years ago. I’ve been a Genesis fan for a very long time and have tried to play some of these grooves, but couldn’t wrap my arms around the beats. It is great to have him showcase so much of his dads incredible playing, and for Nic to pull off every one like a boss. Well done to Nic and for the Drumeo team 💪👍👌

This is so awesome and Nic is so talented! Genesis is really legendary in progressive rock and Phil is integral part of that. So glad Phil passed that down to Nic!

I knew Phil Collins was a great drummer, but now seeing how it was all done, I respect him even more. So many intricate parts and details. What a drummer!

What a joy to witness this young man following in his Pop's footsteps, and he's got it down!! Looks like him too.

35:00 Man, what a great performance of ‘Fading Lights’!! One of my favourite Genesis tracks. The live version from Earls Court in the 90’s is truely awesome 🔥 Love the triplet kinda Tom and Cymbal fills that I think of as synonymous with Phil Collins. Nick seems like a genuinely great guy too!
