Over the weekend, the trailer for upcoming documentary Let There Be Drums was released. The documentary features legendary drummers like Chad Smith, Ringo Starr, Stephen Perkins, Matt Sorum, and more. The aim of the film is to be an “examination into the essential role drumming plays in great bands and how music passes from generation to generation.” Let There Be Drums will be released on Oct. 28.

Let’s show our appreciation for drummers and the vital part they have in the bands we love. Whether it’s a specific drummer you’d like to recognize, a song that mentions a drummer, or just a song with a killer beat.
