Assaf seewi rockin on the drums
Assaf Seewi is a show-drummer/percussionist from London. He is regarded for his unique blend of showmanship and a repertoire of innovative grooves. His most recognizable talent is juggling three drumsticks while holding down a steady beat on the drums (the Fat Groove). His older brother is a professional juggler and Seewi had a fascination for juggling early on which crept into his drumming. Seewi also plays guitar and sings. Songwriting became a more serious part in his life and after building his own studio he moved on to become a producer and composer.
