ANDREA JR BESSONE

I was born in 1991, I started playing at 15 and I immediately fell in love with drums, playing in my garage with some friends. After some local concerts I uploaded my first video, it was a cover of a Melody Fall song on YouTube, they were looking for a new drummer, so I sent them this video and they asked me to join the band after a few days. I played my first tour with them around Europe in 2014, then in 2015 we went to China for our first Chinese tour, 14 clubs/14 cities. During 2015 and early 2016 I played some shows with the metalcore band “Tasters”. In 2016 we went to Japan and played 5 shows around Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka and Shibuya. In February 2016 I was contacted by Universal Music Italia to go on stage with the Colombian reggaeton artist J Balvin, I played drums for his song ''Ginza” at the 2016 Sanremo Festival. The show was streamed on Eurovision and on Rai TV, the main Italian television channel. In November 2018, I came back to China with Melody Fall for another 15-day tour to promote our new album. In the meantime I always uploaded my videos on Instagram and my page has grown more in recent years, so I started teaching drums and in 2019 I signed my first contract as an independent drummer with Vivo Concerti for the Italian rapper "Mostro". The promotional tour for his album was sold-out in Milan, Rome and Turin. In 2020 I became a Paiste Cymbals, Evans Drumheads and New Drum Percussion artist, in May 2021 I became a Dw artist and joined Gewa, in November 2021 I played the second tour for Mostro in the main Italian clubs. At the beginning of 2022 I became a ProMark sticks artist and I started to playi as a session drummer for the Punk/Emo Trap trio "La Sad", from 2022 until today with this trio, I played about 50 shows, with various television appearances like "Stasera C’è Cattelan su Rai 2", "Love Me" in Piazza Duomo on Italia 1, and "Radio Zeta Future Hits 2023" on Sky live at arena di Verona, at the beginning of 2023 I shot videos to promote the entire range of Pdp and Dw pedals at Gewa headquarters and then I continued with the tour, in 2024 I am working on the new album of "La Sad" trio, now I can't wait to see what the future brings!!
