| Donny Sarian Drums / Fusion / Progressive Rock / Metal
Toluca Lake, CA Live to play!
Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA., I began playing drums at age five, and developed a passion for artists as diverse as Jimi Hendrix, Joni Mitchell and Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. I also studied guitar for two years with the late great Randy Rhoads. My focus gave equal attention to composing and drumming, working with a string of noted bands, including L.A. metal giants Divine Rite, the techno-funk of Social Fact, August Kurly (with whom I first played with T. Gunn) and my own metal band Mach One. I also plays guitar, bass, and keyboards and have my own full production recording studio in my house. My current band "Big Franklin" consists of: Frank Gambale-Guitar, Robertino Pagliari-6 string Fretless bass, T. Gunn- Vocals and myself on drums. We are currently working on our 2nd album (as yet untitled) to be released this summer on Quasi Music Records, inc. The 1st. CD titled "But the Ticket...Take the Ride" is available everywhere and some songs from the CD can be heard below.
