David Kurdelak

(Drums/Percussion/Vocals/Lyricist)

David has been the drummer for Fools Paradise since its start.  He has played with many different bands during the years that gave him the freedom to experiment with Rock, Metal and Progressive styles of music.  Some of his drumming influences are Mike Portnoy, Steve Smith, Nicko McBrain, Thomas Lang, Chester Thompson, Gavin Harrison, among others.

"The thing I love about being in Fools Paradise is that we don’t just play one musical style, which keeps the music very exciting and challenging."

David’s current gear: SONOR drums and hardware, Paiste Cymbals, Vater Sticks, Evans Drumheads and Treework chimes.
