Joe Montague is a drummer and self-proclaimed Ringo fanatic who specializes in 60's style drum recordings. Joe is also the host of "That 60's Recording Podcast" and is based out of Northern England, UK!  In this episode, Joe shared his story - from playing in bands and Beatlemania tribute shows to recording drums from his own studio for artists around the world. We go deep on his approach to acoustic treatment and mic placement, how he communicates with the artists he works with and so much more. Check it out!
