Travis Barker

I'm the drummer for Blink-182, The Transplants, Box Car Racer, and Plus 44. I was also previously the drummer for the Aquabats (as Baron Von Tito), The Vandals and Suicide Machines. I began playing drums and taking lessons at the age of four. I studied with a jazz teacher who exposed me to many different styles of music. While in high school, I played in the jazz ensemble and marching band. I also gained much experience performing at regional competitions and festivals. During my senior year of high school, I passed up drum corps tryouts for touring with a rock band. After graduating from Fontana High School in 1993, I gained more experience as a rock drummer in a few early bands. Now I have been playing drums in some songs of The Black Eyed Peas, Nelly, & The Game.
I prefer Orange County Drums and Percussion, Zildjian Cymbals and Drumsticks, and Drum Workshop hardware.
I also own my own accessory/apparel company called Famous Stars And Straps and a record company called LaSalle Records.
