Elliot Figueroa is a 17-year-old drummer/percussionist from Bergen County, New Jersey. His appreciation for music started when he was just a toddler, fond of all Linkin Park and Van Halen songs and music videos. During this early musical journey, Elliot was devoted strictly to the guitar and then developed an interest for other instruments such as the bass and the piano. Once introduced to the video game “Guitar Hero” around the age of 7, his devotion for drumming was initiated. Elliot’s original drum kit began with an Alesis Turbo Mesh electronic drum kit and has upgraded to his current acoustic set (Pearl Roadshow New Fusion 5 Piece), which now includes his ensemble of handmade Turkish
cymbals by Soultone.

Joining a band in 2023 and performing live made Elliot affirm that becoming a drummer was his true passion. He continues to practice, self-teach and improve his skills while being inspired by accomplished drummers such as Jimmy “The Rev” Sullivan, Ray Luzier/David Silveria, Rob Bourdon, Travis Smith, Alex Bent, and Dave Chavarri. Elliot is also a former endorsed artist for Collision Drumsticks.
