Phil Collins is the subject of a new documentary.
Phil Collins: Drummer First will premiere on Drumeo.com on December 18th.
Collins, who participated, says, “I’m not a singer who plays the drums. I’m more of a drummer who sings a bit.”
The trailer is out and it shows Collins sitting behind his drum kit, which he hasn't played publicly in years due to an injury in 2007 that affects his grip.
“If I wake up one day and I can hold a pair of drumsticks then I will have a crack at it,” he says. “I just feel like I’ve used up my air miles.”
Also featured in the film are his son Nic, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, bassist Leland Sklar, jazz drummer Billy Cobham, Pearl Jam drummer Matt Cameron, Genesis touring guitarist Daryl Stuermer, former Who touring drummer Simon Phillips, Styx drummer Todd Sucherman, former Billy Joel drummer Liberty DeVitto, and many others.
