The World Record
Seven Days.

Non-Stop Drumming.

A World in Motion.
A 168–hour, 24/7 drumming world-record attempt across the United States — live, continuous and built to move.

This is Where the Journey Is Heading.

Everything GROOVE is building has to come together here.
The week is the record. The journey is what makes it possible.

The Stage Keeps Changing. The Performance Never Stops.

This record isn't confined to one room, one venue or one stage. It moves from stage to stage, city to city and location to location — with every transition becoming part of the challenge.
Everything around the performance changes. Even the artists and the music.
The drumming never stops.
The Scale

The Record Lasts One Week.

The Event Around It Is Much Bigger.
Built across the United States, the current concept is targeting a moving live experience of multiple cities, shows and artists – all connected by one continuous record attempt.

Built For 168 Hours.

A record like this can't run on willpower alone. It has to work as a system.
The athlete, the equipment, the movement and the production all have to keep functioning while locations, artists and environments change around them.

THE ATHLETE

Endurance, nutrition, medical support, mental performance and recovery strategy – built around one body carrying the entire attempt.

THE MOVEMENT

Vehicles, routes, power, connectivity and logistics built to turn transportation into part of the record instead of an interruption.

THE PERFORMANCE

Drum setups, transitions, redundancy and equipment designed so the performance can continue while the environment changes.

THE PRODUCTION

Cameras, audio, livestream, communication, data and backups designed to keep the event visible and documented from beginning to end.
Nothing is allowed to depend on luck.
Verification

The Record Has Rules.

A world record isn't created by saying it happened. It has to be performed, documented and verified.

RECORD TITLE

Longest marathon drumming by an individual

GUIDELINES

Official title‒specific guidelines received

EVIDENCE

Video documentation, witness records, timekeeping and logs are being built into the attempt from the start

STATUS

World‒record attempt in development
Every hour has to count. Every hour has to be provable.
Recognition is subject to successful completion and verification of the attempt.
The Human Limit

The System Can Rotate. The Drummer Can't.

For 168 hours, every transition, every show and every difficult moment still has to pass through one body.
There is no substitute.
ENDURANCE · NUTRITION · MEDICAL · MIND · RECOVERY
168 hours don't happen to a system...
They happen to a human being.

Live & Worldwide

Live. From the First Second to the Last.

The record isn't built around highlights. The entire 168‒hour journey is designed to be followed in real time.

LIVE STREAM

The full attempt – built to be broadcast worldwide, so everything can be followed as it happens.

LIVE SHOWS

Stages, audiences and changing environments become part of the 168 hours.

ARTISTS

Bands, musicians and special guests bring different music and different moments into the record.

DOCUMENTARY

While the world watches live, the documentary captures what the livestream alone cannot tell.
168 hours don't disappear between the highlights.
What Remains

The Clock Stops. The Story Doesn't.

When the final second is over, the record becomes something else:
footage, proof, experience – and a story that can live far beyond the seven days.

THE DOCUMENTARY

The human story behind 168 hours – before, during and after the attempt.

THE BLUEPRINT

What worked. What failed. What changed. The experience becomes material others can learn from.

THE ARCHIVE

Seven days of performances, conversations, breakdowns, breakthroughs and moments that can continue living across film, episodic content and social media.
The attempt lasts seven days. What comes out of it can last much longer.
Partnership

Some Partners Will Be Seen.

Others Will Make the Record Possible.
A moving 168‒hour record creates real roles for brands – from mobility, technology and production to performance, energy, travel, media and much more.
MOBILITY · PRODUCTION · PERFORMANCE · MEDIA · FUNDING · AND MORE
The strongest partnerships won't sit beside the story. They'll become part of how it happens.

The Clock Starts Later. The Record Is Being Built Now.
