The drummer

Joey Interrante - early career
THEN

Hip Pocket Studios Founder Joey Interrante has been locking in the pocket live and in the Studio for over five decades. From NYC to LA, Nashville to Austin, and Tampa Bay.

Dive bars to European stages. He has shared the room with artists you have heard of and artists you need to know. He does not play over your song. He serves it.

The arsenal: vintage Slingerland, Gretsch, and GMS Grand Master Series kits tracked through Shure, Sennheiser, and AKG mics into PreSonus Studio One Pro.

Rock, country, Americana, alternative, acoustic rock, alt-rock, indie, blues, singer-songwriter, and funk. From Tampa Bay to wherever your song needs to go, Hip Pocket Studios delivers remote drum tracks worldwide. If your song needs drums that fit, he has got you.

50 years. Still in the pocket.

Discography

Tap a genre to hear Joey's drums

Americana
Rock
Alternative
Country
Acoustic Rock
Alt Rock
Americana

Brushes, restrained kick, vintage Slingerland tone. Built for singer-songwriters who need drums that sit behind the song, not on top of it.

Rock

Big snare, locked kick, controlled energy. From Tom Petty to the Black Keys, punchy without overplaying.

Alternative

Dynamic, textural playing. Space when the verse needs it, drive when the chorus earns it.

Country

Nashville feel with real groove. Works for traditional and modern country artists alike.

Acoustic Rock

Warm, natural kit sound. Light touch and organic feel that lets the acoustic instruments breathe.

Alt Rock

Driving, confident, never cluttered. The kit that holds the riff together without fighting it.

Studio relationships

"Joey stopped by to help me test out the Ludwigs...laid down a phat groove on a song I'm working on."

— Jim Gilmour, SouthView Arts Recording Studio

"Joey brings pro level to everything he does. Whatever tone you're looking for, whatever genre, he can deliver. With a dozen different kits, styles and decades of studio and live performing, he brings whatever it is you're looking for... and just wait until he bakes you a lasagna to celebrate your successes. Yeah, he can cook too."

— John Kelly, Hideaway Recording Studio & Recording Artist

Local studios: Got a client who needs drums? Joey's your guy for remote tracking or in-studio sessions. Let's build a referral relationship that works for everyone.

How it works

You send your song file or a rough recording along with the tempo and any notes about the feel you are going for. Hip Pocket Studios Founder Joey Interrante records the drum tracks on professional kits using PreSonus Studio One Pro, then delivers the finished drum tracks back to you, ready to drop into your recording. No travel, no studio booking, no hassle.

All genres. Rock, country, Americana, alternative, indie, Blues, singer-songwriter, funk, and acoustic. If it needs drums that fit, Hip Pocket Studios can deliver them.

Fast turnaround is a core part of what Hip Pocket Studios delivers. Rush options are available for time-sensitive projects. Just mention it when you reach out.

Send your song (guitar or keys and vocal with click) or a rough recording in an MP3 file, the BPM's (tempo), and a brief description of the feel or genre. A reference track helps too if you have one. Joey takes it from there.

Vintage Slingerland, Gretsch, and GMS handmade Grand Master Series kits tracked through Shure, Sennheiser, and AKG mics into PreSonus Studio One Pro.

Yes. Hip Pocket Studios works with musicians and producers worldwide. File delivery is digital, so location is never a barrier.
