Forbes Magazine: Drinking A Proper Cup Of Tea With Def Leppard’s Rick Allen
Few rock musicians are better qualified to talk about the intersection of music and healing than Rick Allen, drummer of Def Leppard.
The band’s album ‘Pyromania’ was selling millions of copies in the U.S. and their videos were all over MTV when in 1984 he lost his left arm in a car crash. His bandmates famously stood by him and he remained in the group — retraining himself with new techniques and a customized electronic drum kit. Allen’s Raven Drum Foundation now helps other survivors of trauma. I spoke with Allen about the power of drum circles, drinking tea with AC/DC’s Bon Scott and the music he is most proud of making.
