Joe Babiak


Kill Hannah / Parallel Mind / Michael Angelo Batio

Pro Rock Wood / Slick Nut

Joe Babiak began his musical career at the early age of five. He first started with the piano and soon after began the trumpet. Drumming came to him very naturally due to his previous musical training. His strong understanding of theory, keen melodic and harmonic sense, and excellent pitch makes him unique on the instrument.

Joe's progressive-rock group, Parallel Mind, was signed to Unicorn Records of Canada for the release of their album, Colossus ADEA. December 2002, Joe joined guitarist extraordinaire, Michael Angelo Batio, for a very successful tour in Asia. Since then he has recorded, performed live, and appeared in music videos with Michael. In the spring of 2006, Joe joined the Chicago based band, Kill Hannah, for a 5 month national tour in support of the group's second album release with Atlantic Records.

Currently, Joe resides in Los Angeles and performs regularly with a few local groups. He is an active studio musician and also teaches private lessons.
