Shaun Hueston is the simultaneously laid back and high energy drummer of Dilettantes. His warm and light hearted energy puts a smile on your face within seconds of being in his presence. I particularly admire his consistently grateful attitude to the world around him. It wouldn’t take much more than a frothy in the sunshine and a conversation with this glorious man for the gratitude to seep into your mindset as well. Shaun and I met when I performed with the beautiful Jettison for their ‘See Right Through Me’ EP launch at Jive. It was there I witnessed this vibrant human in action where his three piece band Dilettantes. They musically kicked me in the guts repeatedly with their wall of sound performance. Safe to say that I am hooked and you should definitely check out their track ‘Rabble’ on Spotify. They also organise a yearly mini festival at the Cranker called ‘Welcome to the Void’ which we should all keep an eye on as the musical world starts to rebuild itself. It’s always a pleasure to connect with a fellow musician on a personal level. However, my main attraction to Shaun was due to his involvement in the project ‘Ride the US to End MS’ . It's a truly wholesome project that I encourage everyone to follow. Hear more about the project in our conversation together! Additionally we touch on topics such as positive masculinity and happiness with friends. Listen now to discover the Ray of Sunshine that is Shaun Hueston!!!
