Episode 94 - Joey Cassata (ZO2, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Twisted Sister)

from The Musicians Mentor · host Musicians Mentor

Today on the show I speak with author/drummer/musician - Joey Cassata.Joey Cassata is an American based author/drummer/musician who gained notoriety as a player in the early 2000's with his Rock band 'ZO2', the band even becoming the subject of a television series called 'Z-Rock' and exposed him to a large audience worldwide. From there, he continued to climb the ladder of success and became a member of the 'Trans Siberian Orchestra' for 13 years, recorded drums on the late/great Ace Frehley's record '10000 Volts', has an amazing KISS tribute band called 'The Handsome Devils' and was most recently even announced as the new drummer for the latest 'Twisted Sister' tour. Additionally, Joey has a 'KISS' related podcast (Podcast Rock City Live), had an amazing career as an author with his books 'Kiss Drummers', 'The Order Of The Rose' and 'Wrestling With Joeylicious' - to name just a few... Joey and I had a really positive conversation where we talk about dreaming big, inspiration, music careers, networking, music education, eating cannolis with Peter Criss and of course and KISS.
