About the drummer

Nick Mason is a founding member of Pink Floyd and a master of atmospheric and progressive drumming. He is famous for his ability to use space and texture to elevate complex musical themes. Every student learning drums in the prog-rock genre studies his iconic parts.

Drummer style

Mason’s style is subtle and measured, often focusing on steady, slow-tempo grooves that allow the guitars to breathe. Playing drums to his tracks involves mastering dynamics and a very precise sense of time. His work on "Money" (in 7/4 time) is a legendary challenge in drum lessons and for technical drum covers.
