Hailing from South Africa, Anton Fig’s career as a drummer has spanned decades; he’s worked alongside artists like Ace Frehley, Link Wray, Cyndi Lauper, Warren Zevon, Madonna, Mick Jagger, and countless more. His technical proficiency, distinctive style, and deep musical knowledge ultimately earned him the nickname “The Thunder from Down Under.” But if you’re David Letterman, you might have called him “Anton Zip” or “Buddy Rich Jr.” when Fig, Paul Schaffer, and the World’s Most Dangerous Band were serving as Letterman’s house band. All in all, Fig’s a bona fide drum dynamo, and Sweetwater’s sound scholar, Mitch Gallagher, sat down with Fig at the Cutting Room Club in New York City for an in-depth interview with the legend.
