About this listen

From sold-out tours and standing ovations to Uber shifts and sold houses, drummer Gordy Marshall knows what it means to face the silence. In The Resilient Musician, he shares the raw, often funny, and always honest story of what happens when life hits pause-and how topress play again.

This is not just a memoir, it’s more a roadmap for anyone who’s ever been knocked sideways and wondered how to get back up. Whether you’re a musician, a dreamer, a reinvention artist, or just someone trying to find the beat again, Gordy’s story offers more than inspiration — it offers truth.

Told with heart, humour and hard-earned wisdom, The Resilient Musician explores what it means to keep going when the spotlight fades. From producing theatrical shows, to putting bands together to subbing in West End pits, to creating orchestral shows and launching new dreams on the other side of disaster, this book is a celebration of grit, grace and the power of showing up.

Because sometimes, the comeback is even better than the original.

This book isn’t a pep talk; it’s more a toolkit or a roadmap – maybe even a lifeline. And a journey you can take together with Gordy. “The reason I wrote this book is because I have absolutely lived it”. (Gordy Marshall)
