Hunt Sales Memorial

Hunt Sales is an Austin drummer who has been working with other top-notch artists since the 1960s, including the likes of Iggy Pop, Todd Rundgren, and David Bowie. He has mastered many genres from rock to funk to blues. You name it, he's done it. With his release of "Get Your Shit Together" in January 2019, Sales reveals his skills as a singer and a songwriter. “Whatever I brought to Iggy, whatever I brought to Bowie, whatever I brought to Todd Rundgren … now I’m bringing that to myself, to my own work,” Sales says. “Look at other drummers — Art Blakey, Tony Williams, Elvin Jones — they all worked with great people, but then they got to a point in their lives where they did their own thing. Basically, they all had to reinvent themselves and start their own bands. So that’s what I had to do.”
