“The weight of this responsibility is enormous and I am feeling every ounce of it”: The Who’s new drummer announces himself to fans

Roger Daltrey performs on stage during 'Roger Daltrey: A Night Of The Who Classics' at Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood on February 20, 2023 in Hollywood, Florida.

The Who have a new drummer. He is Scott Devours, a 58-year-old American who has played in Roger Daltrey’s solo band for over 16 years.

Devours replaces Zak Starkey, who according to Pete Townshend quit last week to concentrate on ‘new projects’, before Starkey, very publicly, made it clear that he had been sacked, saying: “I love The Who and would never have quit and let down so many amazing people who stood up for me through all this madness.”
