WorshipDrummer Journal from Planetshakers Awakening 2015

We are so excited to release this journal from Planetshakers Awakening 2015. Before we do that though, I just want to give a big HUGE thank you and shout out to Andy Harrison, Brendo Allen, and Chris Lawson for providing us with all the behind the scenes footage. We hope this WorshipDrummer Journal inspires you and allows you to see into the world of some of our favourite worshipdrummers!

Hi guys, it’s Andy, Brendo and Chris from Planetshakers! We’re all set and ready to have an incredible week at Planetshakers Awakening. Expecting God to move powerfully!!  We’ll be sending through more pics and videos as the week goes on, so watch this space.

Here’s a timelapse of us setting up the for conference this week

Day 1 – April 7, 2015

Such an incredible start to Planetshakers Awakening 2015! @andytheharrison behind the kit. So many hearts touched by God’s presence! #planetshakers #awakening #heartbeforebeat #worshipdrummer

Day 2 – April 8, 2015

Andy Harrison rocking it to one of the new songs at #psawakening!

Day 3 – April 9, 2015

At Planetshakers we are all about the #heartbeforebeat.

This is our expression of worship – so amazing that God uses it to lead others into worship too. [Tweet “Sometimes you’ve got to know to put the sticks down and get a little bit lost yourself! #planetshakers”]

Day 4 – April 10, 2015

Moments before our final night at conference!

Here are some more highlights from conference! We had two locations – the main sessions and women’s sessions were held at the Hisense Arena, and our men’s conference was at our City church campus. The other kit we used was a Yamaha Live Custom (oak) with the same sizes as the Phoenix.

And what’s a journal without a quick rundown of our drum gear!?

Here’s the gear that was used for Planetshakers Awakening 2015:

• Yamaha Phoenix Kit.
• 10″, 12″, 14″, 16″ toms, 22″ kick.
• 14×6″ DW top edge mahogany snare
• 14×7 DW collectors maple snare (Aux)
• Dream cymbals
