Micheál Quinn has toured worldwide, performing everywhere, from small club venues to major festivals, arenas, and stadiums. He plays with ferocity—yet always musically—balancing right on the edge of control. Deeply fascinated by breathwork and the body’s role in performance, Micheál integrates dedicated mindfulness and breathing practices to continually push himself as a drummer. Wild but never reckless, his style is rooted in a deep dedication to groove, matched with a carefree, wild, energy that keeps audiences fully engaged and mesmerized at every show.

Influences include: (On the drums) Taylor Hawkins, Jimmy Chamberlin, Keith Moon, John Bonham, Buddy Rich, Dave Grohl.... (On rhythm) Moderat, Jon Hopkins, Eminem, André 300, Dr. Dre....(On musicality) Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens, Isbells, S. Carey.....

He is endorsed by SONOR drums, Sabian cymbals, Remo drumheads, and Vic Firth sticks.
