Born and raised in NJ, I have been a drummer for as long as he can remember. Studying since the age of nine years old, I excelled at both reading music and keeping good time. After going through the Public School system in my hometown, I went on to Indiana University where I pursued a degree in Jazz Studies (percussion concentration).

I began playing the piano around the age of thirteen and have been playing ever since. It was around this time that I also began to get involved with multi-track recording.

After College I went on to have some excellent playing experiences with some of the best artists both back home in the NY/NJ area and in Europe as well. I have since performed just about every style of music imaginable and written music for both radio and television. I currently reside near my hometown and have and two great boys Curren and Jackson. For some highlights from my performing and studio career, visit the recording and performance pages of this site.

All the Best,

Joe DeVico
