Episode 66 - Nic Collins (Genesis, Honouring Legacy & Following His Own Path)

This episode features my conversation with Nic Collins. 

As the son of music legend Phil Collins, Nic has gone on to establish his own path as professional drummer and honour his father’s legacy

When he was still a teenager, Nic became the drummer for his father’s Not Dead Yet solo tour and was later invited to take over the drumset chair for the final Genesis tour. Currently, Nic is touring with Mike & The Mechanics and is also involved in his own original projects.

In our conversation, we talk about his experiences growing up as the son of a music industry icon, and how his father encouraged him to follow his passion. We also talk about his experiences and lessons learned on final Phil Collins and Genesis tours and establishing his own career.
