About Me
When you think of drums you think the root or the pulse of any band, Shaun Kelly is just that. Shaun started his studies of percussion at the early age of 11 while enrolled in the Harlem School of the Arts. By 18 his studies paid off by getting him a Music Scholarship to the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Djembe, Congas, Timpani, Marimba, Sabar, and drum set are all accomplished in this mans 4 limbs. Oh how could we leave out the fact that he also raps, sings, and composes a lot of the music that planet U performs. Watching this brother perform is mind-boggling. You can catch Shaun’s work in movies like Marci X staring Damon Wayne and Lisa Kudro, to playing behind, John Legend, Anthony Hamilton, El De Barge, Larant Camara and Moussa Traore. Shaun has preformed all over the Globe, Queens to Cali, Africa to Europe, Canada to Asia, and from Australia back to Planet U!
