Martin Atkins talked with our host, Gigi Johnson, from his studio that also acts as a museum of all of the adventurous projects around his career. Martin shared how he began drumming at age 9 and persistently getting into Public Image Ltd, waiting through 5 drummers. He talked about believing early on that he had a job -- "it's being me." He diversified by accident and kept adding roles as blockages came his way, including launching bands and labels. Each time, he picked the best option that arose and looked for both safety nets and for solutions IN the problem itself.

He was a member of Public Image Ltd and Killing Joke.
