The drummer
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.

"The drums are just really nice. 'Wings and Whiskey' was a decent song, and you turned it into a really good song with a feature-worthy drum part. 'Shine' is the song I want to keep listening to over and over."
— Wendell, Wendell and The Swirl"Look dude, I need to tell you I really appreciate what you have done here with both of these numbers. We're tightening them up now, still working on some little details, but the drums are just really nice. 'Wings and Whiskey' was a decent song and you just turned it into a really good song with an important and feature-worthy drum part. And 'Shine' is just the song I want to keep listening to over and over again, and what you've done to it and how you brought your own self and expressed yourself in this number has turned the song into something more than I really ever imagined. Just want to say thanks again, Joey."
"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."

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.
