Rockin' Out With Bobby "T" Torello
Not So Modern Drummer
6/4/2015
Drummer extraordinaire Bobby Torello, affectionately known as ‘T’ continues to “rock out” at the age of 62. I caught another one of his recent performances with The Jay Willie Blues Band, and was summarily ‘blown away’. With amazing chops, and complete command of the instrument, Bobby is constantly pushing the band to new heights. He has that rare gift of bringing out the very best in his fellow musicians. His enthusiasm for the drums, and passion for music have continued unabated since age twelve. He is a visual and aural wonderment behind the kit, with a potent combination of speed, power, and showmanship. READ MORE

The single audition East Haven native Bobby Torello didn't snare was with Ozzy Osbourne. The reason: He had two broken ribs. The reason for the two broken ribs: "classified information," quipped the slight long-maned 60-year-old widely recognized as Connecticut's finest drummer, whose immense talents will be on display up close and personal Saturday night in the intimate confines of La Luna Ristorante on Route 1.
