Luca Santaniello is a drummer, composer and educator based in New York City since 2001. Luca began taking drums lessons at the age of eight in his hometown of Campobasso, Italy, and then started playing drums in rock and jazz bands at the age of fourteen. At the age of twelve he enrolled at the local music conservatory “L.Perosi” as a classical percussion major, and soon developed a passion for jazz, after discovering the music of Art Blakey and Elvin Jones through his first drums teacher.
After graduating with High Honors at the Conservatory “L.Perosi”, Luca relocated to the United States in 2001 at the age of twenty-one to study at the Brooklyn-Queens College of Music in New York City.
