Steve Lyman:
“An American Original”
— Jimmy Chamberlin
“Steve is quite simply a rare, unique voice in the world of contemporary drumming. His inventive, rhythm-provocative ideas; his perspective on disparate polyrhythms are at the forefront.”
— Virgil Donati
“One of the most mindful and technical drummers of our time. As a drummer, Steve thinks as much as he feels. He bridges the gap between mathematics and spirituality.
”— Machinedrum
Steve Lyman has emerged as a global leader of contemporary music on the drums. Known for his singular sound, a deeply integrative approach, high technical fluidity and a vast knowledge of rhythm and independence, Lyman has blended traditions of jazz, rock, classical and electronic languages to create a unique and emotionally relevant soundscape on the drums. Currently, Lyman is crafting a formal rhythmic practice called the Vector System: which is a modular rhythmic system that utilizes two adjacent time points simultaneously.
As a performer, Lyman’s aim is to find the inner-space of any musical architecture. His sonic pallet on the drums has been described as: nuanced, articulate, fluid, compositional, emotional, complex, mind-altering, and minimalistic. This capacity has allowed Lyman to work with a vast array of musical leaders such: Machinedrum, TMPRL, Jon Batiste, Gilad Hekselman, Donny McCaslin, Jimmy Chamberlin, Ari Hoenig, members of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Robert Koch, J3PO, Guy Gerber, Chase Baird, and many others.
