His hypnontic stage presence and style draws from his many influences included electronic music. From touring and playing festivals with other Yamaha Artist’s, Austin was inspired to become part of the Yamaha family by the sound of the drums as well as the strong bond between the Artists and the company.
Austin D’Amond’s touring and recording credits include Devildriver, Chimaira and Bleed the Sky.
