Composer, bandleader and creative foil for some of the world’s most inventive musicians, in-demand Berkeley drummer
Scott Amendola applies his rhythmic virtuosity to a vast array of settings. His closest musical associates include guitarists Nels Cline, Jeff Parker, and Charlie Hunter; Hammond B-3 organist Wil Blades; violinists Regina Carter and Jenny Scheinman; and clarinetist Ben Goldberg—players who have each forged a singular path within and beyond the realm of jazz. As a sideman, Amendola has performed and recorded with a vast, stylistically varied roster of artists, including Pat Metheny, Bill Frisell, Laurie Anderson, John Zorn, John Scofield, Wadada Leo Smith, and Madeleine Peyroux, among many others.
