Jesse Nolan
is a self proclaimed Beatles
fanatic, who has studied Ringo's
drumming his entire life. In
fact, as an Associate Instructor
at Indiana University, he taught
a lesson seminar on Ringo's
drumming,
"I have
always wanted to play some of
those songs in a live situation
with others who appreciate the
Beatles' music the way I
do", explains Jesse.
...And play he
does...
Jesse has dissected each drum
beat, percussive sound, and
overdub of the Beatles catalog.
On stage he seems to be three
Ringos, covering several
percussion parts, which the
Beatles recorded seperately, at
the same time.
With two
degrees from the Jacobs School of
Music at Indiana University, a
Bachelors in Music Education and
a Master's in Jazz/Percussion
Performance, Jesse has toured
nationally and internationally
with many musical ensembles
including cover/tribute bands,
original rock bands, jazz trios,
and full orchestras.
In addition to
Meet The Beetles, Jesse is a
member of the Chicago original
rock band Dragon and Jones
