More on Taylor Hawkins
Description from Wikipedia:
Oliver Taylor Hawkins (born on February 17, 1972 in Fort Worth, Texas) is an American musician, best known as the drummer of the rock band Foo Fighters.
Prior to joining the band in 1997, he was the touring drummer for Alanis Morissette on her Jagged Little Pill tour, as well as the drummer in the progressive experimental band called Sylvia which, after changing their name to ANYONE, went on to sign with ROADRUNNER records. His cousin, Kevin Harrell, introduced him to Dave Grohl after camping with him for several weeks in the Ozarks. Hawkins would eventually become the drummer for Grohl's band, the Foo Fighters.
Hawkins has said that his drumming has been chiefly influenced by Roger Taylor of Queen and Stewart Copeland of The Police. He was voted "Best Rock Drummer" in 2005 by the UK drumming magazine Rhythm.
At Live Earth in 2007, Hawkins was part of SOS Allstars with Roger Taylor of Queen and Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers. Hawkins also recorded the drums on Coheed and Cambria's 4th album, Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow.
In 2004, Hawkins formed his own side-project, Taylor Hawkins and the Coattail Riders, in which he plays drums and sings.
