Victor Indrizzo

Alanis Morissette/ Studio

Even if youve never heard of Victor Indrizzo, youve heard Victor Indrizzo”frequently. As a prolific L.A.-based session player, hes on an astounding number of hit records that span a wide range of genres, including rock, hip-hop, country, singer-songwriter, and Latin music. Due to Indrizzos chameleonlike ability to incorporate himself into any situation and play the appropriate thing, top producers like Joe Chiccarelli continually turn to him for tracking drums. From the punk-influenced pop of Avril Lavignes œComplicated to the earthy, bare-bones approach of Willie Nelsons Teatro album, Indrizzo delivers with a sound that Chiccarelli describes as œthe perfect combination of band-member swagger and studio-drummer finesse.

Indrizzos diversity and flexibility have led to opportunities to play with countless major artists. Youll hear Victor on Alanis Morissettes, Havoc and Bright Lights, and Live at Montreux as well as on records by Sugarland, Lizzo, Colbie Caillat, Sheryl Crow, Depeche Mode, Macy Gray, Shakira, Chris Cornell, Sara Bareilles, Juanes, Rob Thomas and many, many more. Of particular note is his playing on the eclectic Mexican band Cafa Tacvbas album Cuatro Caminos, which won the 2004 Grammy for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album and Latin Grammys for Best Alternative Album and Best Rock Song for the track œEres.

In addition to his other session work, Indrizzo is active recording movie scores and soundtracks, including Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Wedding Crashers, The Matrix, Finding Dory, Sing

  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    The search for new sounds. I love stacking cymbals and the infinite combination of sounds you can come up with. I love the challenge of making sounds that fit with programming. Stretching the boundaries of one of oldest forms of communicating.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Don't get caught up in comapring yourself or your playing with anyone else, find your voice. We are all unquie in some way and in some ways all the same, tell your story through your playing!

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    To me the Avedis line is everything I have ever looked for in a cymbal. I have always had a love of vintage Zildjians, to me this is the perfect combo of what is great about the old and the new. They record so beautifully and I work with some of the pickiest most discerning engineers.
