Show Notes Chapter Markers

27 was a pivotal age for Clementine Moss. That was the year she decided to take up learning to play the drums, and that she attended her first ten-day Vipassana meditation retreat.

Little did she know the lasting impact each of these decisions would have on her life, nor the ways in which these parallel disciplines would complement each other and liberate her creative spirit.

Clem is the founder and drummer of Zepparella, an all-female-member Led Zeppelin tribute band that has been rocking North America since 2004.

She is also a spiritual counselor, who assists her clients using a range of healing modalities.

Her wonderful and unique new memoir is entitled "From Bonham to Buddha and Back: The Slow Enlightenment of the Hard Rock Drummer".
