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.
