Linkin Park are far from the first to praise Bushell’s work. Last month, Pixies showed their appreciation for her take on their classic song ‘Where Is My Mind?’
She’s also had plaudits from the likes of Muse, Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Flea and Dave Grohl, who she had a remote drum-off with last year.
Earlier this month, Bushell shared a drum cover of Slipknot’s ‘Duality’.
“It’s true, one of my favourite bands so far is Slipknot,” Bushell said. “I love drumming with double pedals. It’s so satisfying!
“Both Jay [Weinberg] and Joey Jordison are awesome drummers. But I really, really love Jay’s playing! True fact, I actually listen to Slipknot when I go to bed at night. I am wearing a Jay mask made by Joel! Thank you Joel!”
Weinberg repaid the compliment on Twitter: “You’re the best, Nandi!! Always Crushing it!”
