Steve Smith's drumming, while always decidedly modern, can best be described as a style that embodies the history of U.S. music.

An excerpt of my soundcheck warmup at a Vital Information gig in 2023. I was thinking about our tune 'Choreography in Six' and playing in 6/4. This is my 1980 Sonor Drums USA Oak Veneer kit that I used on CAPTURED, ESCAPE, FRONTIERS and the first three Vital Info albums!
