In Rhythm: Aaron Gillespie

Jared Falk  /  UPDATED Nov 21, 2023

You’ve heard their music. You’ve seen their videos. You might have seen them in concert, and you might have watched their drum cam footage.

But how often do you get to see what it’s like behind the scenes with your favorite band or drummer?

In this mini-doc on Aaron Gillespie, drummer and clean vocalist of the band Underoath (and former live drummer for Paramore), you’ll see a ‘day in the life’ on tour and hear about his influences, his first endorsement deals, his first tour and seeing snow for the first time.

A humble guy who becomes a total character on stage, Aaron walks you through his daily routine and opens a window into his life as a touring drummer.
