Blake Fleming has kind of done it all. When I sent my prescreen questions, Blake said he's an open book. Granted, most say this, but I get the sneaking suspicion that Blake is telling it 100% like it is.
He's been a part of some of the biggest bands in the world including Dazzling Killmen and Mars Volta. He's worked with Sean Lennon and so many others like The Ropes, Kim Taylor, Israel Nash, and the Lemonheads. He's lived that life, and it is good.
To quote Blade Runner, he's probably seen things you wouldn't believe, like ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.... or something.
Blake is an author and solo artist on top of being particularly talented at pretty much everything he touches and now he's here.... just like Freddy Mercury.
Ladies and gentlemen, an amazing drummer and inspiration, Blake Fleming welcome!
