From playing with Johnny Cash to Beyonce, Kenny Aronoff is a musician who has demonstrated his ability to stand the test of time. The reason he has been able to do this can be boiled down to one word "passion".
His passion for his work can be felt by anyone who meets him. Since the age of 10, Kenny knew what his purpose was, and this purpose drives him to continuously grow and improve.
Not only was he named #1 Pop/Rock Drummer and #1 Studio Drummer for five consecutive years by Modern Drummer, but his passion for growth and improvement has also led him to become a successful inspirational speaker.
With all of his experience in the music industry just imagine the stories he could tell. Well, now you don't have to imagine it as he recently added author to his list of credentials with the release of his book Sex, Drums, Rock 'n' Roll! So where does one of the world's most influential drummers go to protect both his audio and eBook? Well, Kenny has chosen UREEQA.
