Danny Carey
Danny Carey is the
drummer for the
progressive metal band
Tool who formed in
1989. He has numerous side projects, including past work in Green Jello, and his current
electronica-oriented project ZAUM. In search of new techniques, Carey has studied
tabla with
Aloke Dutta. He also has an interest in the
occult, and performs with geometric symbols on his drums. Carey's popularity among drummers and non-drummers stems from the diversity of his sound; his drum kit contains nearly thirty pieces, one of the largest drum kits in modern music. Carey toured in 2003 with his side project Pygmy Love Circus as the opening band for
A Perfect Circle's 2003 club tour. Danny uses paiste cymbals, sonor drums, vic firth sticks and simmons drums.
