Tom Newbold began drumset lessons at the age of seven. After graduating high school in 2000, Tom studied contemporary percussion, drumset, and 20th Century music theory at the University of California, Santa Barbara. After UCSB, Tom took a year off and then moved here to San Diego where he just finished his MM in Percussion Performance at San Diego State University; studying both drumset with Mike Holguin and Percussion with John Flood.
