Noe Guillen

Catch and Release - Independent
Noe Guillen discovered his love for drums at the age of 10 years old. Not having a drum set, he practiced on his legs until they were bruised. -
Joining his middle school jazz's band, he learned the fundamentals that he took to the punk/hardcore scene of his hometown, quickly establishing himself amongst his peers. At the age of 14, he began auditioning for local bands, landing a gig with Funk/Blues band "FunkmeUP!" embarking on regional and national touring shortly after, he continued to draw inspiration and knowledge from everything he saw night after night.
-
Through bad grades and a school change, he found himself at the new art school in Pomona, The SAE, where he played in several local bands, and studied drums under Iahji Hampden (Ashley Parker Angel, Andy Vargas, Macy Gray) and spent a week with Andrew Jimez of legendary punk-hardcore band Fear.
