Everybody is familiar with Rick Allen. The legendary drummer for the iconic rock band Def Leppard has inspired millions worldwide and earned himself the nickname The Thunder God from his legions of fans.

If you’re not also familiar with his spouse, Lauren Monroe, then you need to do yourself a favour and check out her music and artwork. The talented songstress creates pieces that will touch you to your very heart and help heal your soul.

Together the couple formed the Raven Drum Foundation charity many years ago. It serves, educates, and empowers Veterans, first responders, and trauma survivors through innovative wellness-support programs. In addition, they have an event running called 12 Drummers Drumming, an auction to benefit the Raven Drum Foundation featuring memorabilia from some of the world’s greatest drummers. It’s an opportunity not only for you to win some pieces of rock n’ roll history, but also chat with Lauren and Rick and a few surprise guests via Zoom call.  The auction runs until Noon PT on December 12, 2022. (12/12/22).

We know you will love the interview with Lauren Monroe & Rick Allen, and hope you take the time to support these philanthropic measures that are dedicated to such a wonderful cause by visiting the 12 Drummers Drumming website and the Raven Drum Foundation, where you can find out much more information on the cause. Thank you and enjoy the show!
