Michael Cartellone, drummer for Lynyrd Skynyrd talks about his love for painting and his artwork The Dr. Ward Bond Show

    • Entrevistas de cine

Michael Cartellone is the drummer for the famed rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd and Damn Yankess (who never officially broke up) He attended the Cleveland Institute of Art at the age of four, until he began drumming at the age of nine.
He completely threw himself into drumming, playing his first professional gig at a bar at the age of eleven, although he never stopped painting.
Michael continued studying both drumming and painting simultaneously, throughout his grade school and high school years. By the time he graduated high school, Michael was performing four nights a week, earning his living as a musician; yet at the same time, he had begun selling his paintings.
Then in his early twenties, he found himself in a new band called "Damn Yankees", which went onto multi-platinum status.
Other recording and/or touring credits include: John Fogerty, Cher, Peter Frampton and Freddie Mercury. In 1998, Michael joined the legendary Southern Rock Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, where he can currently be seen on tour throughout the world.
Michael Cartellone’s paintings have earned the honor of being included among the fine collections of The Chaplin Family, Peter Frampton, Russell Brand, The Hard Rock Café and are on display for sale at Wentworth Galleries nationwide.
