Drummer, composer, occasional songwriter and founding member of The
Police, also arguably the best member. Known for his monstrous
talent, good looks, quick wit, manic personality and encyclopedic knowledge for
music, he is the amalgamation of
everything that made the band great. He stood out, both figuratively and
literally, not only for being the tallest and youngest member of the band, but also the only American. He brought his humorous shenanigans onscreen, drumming on various
non-instrument objects (including a rocket at a space station), jumping off a ladder, operating a camera, and even performing in a cage surrounded by lions, among other things. Nowadays he can be found toying around with his eclectic, multicultural, extensive collection of instruments at his
music studio lovably named the Sacred Grove. His childlike sense of curiosity and wonder has remained intact, and if anything he has become even more audacious than he was at the "height" of his career. He has seamlessly aged from a hyper young drummer to a crazy old man, essentially the musician equivalent of a crazy cat lady. You should go follow him on Instagram, he'
s seriously amazing. Needless to say he is incredible and I would love to meet him.
