There are very few bands that have had more of an impact on dance music than Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club. Both groups have been sampled and resampled and have given us prototypes of what danceable grooves should sound like. A good band needs to be based around a good drummer. With example, Chris Frantz, co-founder and one half of the rhythm section in both of these monumental bands is certainly an important guy. He along with his wife Tina Waymouth helped to form Talking Heads back in art school with David Byrne and later went on to create Tom Tom Club, a band who's dedication to music for music sake becomes more apparent with every listen. Mike Dextro, limited to five questions, chats with Frantz about where he's been, where hes going, and what he finds exciting about music.
