This week on the podcast is part one of our interview with Vince Verderame. He’s an extraordinary drummer and percussionist whose portfolio career spans 3 decades. He’s toured the world with numerous Latin pop artists such as Ricky Martin and Raul Di Blasio; was an accompanist/composer/educator for the Dance Dept at the New World School for the Arts in Miami; and toured with the acclaimed Jonathan Kreisberg Trio. Though he’s been with the Blue Man Group in Las Vegas for the past 22 years as a musician and music director, he is still busy subbing on numerous Vegas Shows such as Tom Jones and the Lion King. He recently wrapped up a year as drummer and music director for a project with Derek Hough of Dancin’ with the Stars. Everyone who wants to work in the arts should hear what he has to say about collaborations and putting the audience first!
Las Vegas, with its dazzling stages and high stakes, sets the backdrop for a candid discussion about the ebbs and flows musicians face. The silence of a break from performing can be as profound as the music itself. Vince shares how these pauses can lead to personal renaissance and a deeper connection to one's own artistry. For those looking to strike it big in this city of dreams, Vince shares wisdom on building a stable life while chasing opportunities, all the while ensuring passion doesn't get lost during pragmatic career moves.
Our episode continues with an exploration of the harmonies and discord found in the relationships that define the music industry. Vince talks about the art of authentic networking, avoiding the false notes of desperation, and the dance of collaboration within the complex world of music and entrepreneurship. He shares how family ties can blend with business, creating a unique creative partnership. As we reflect on the pandemic, Vince's experiences underscore the enduring power of music to connect us, even in the most trying times.
