, , ,

Can’t Blink-182 without saying, ‘Travis Barker.’


Drummer Travis Barker is well known for being the primary drummer for rock’s Blink-182. He has drummed on hit songs like Bored To Death and What’s My Age Again. Barker has also drummed on rap songs by XXXTENTACION, Lil Nas X, and Machine Gun Kelly.

Barker also has a sports side to him, too. Early on, Barker’s aspirations were to become a surfer and pro skateboarder. Those interests continued after joining Blink-182. Barker kept up with skateboarding, including appearing as himself in a video game for Tony Hawk.

Barker also respects UFC. Earlier this year, boxer Jon Jones shouted out Barker after winning the lightweight boxing championship.

Barker is a multidimensional talent. He’s ‘on’ in punk rock, rap, and sports.
