Childhood and education


Schulman was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Schulman claims that at age 3, after seeing the Beatles perform on The Ed Sullivan Show, he knew he wanted to be a professional drummer and musician.[1]

Born the son of two college English professors, Schulman is a classically trained cellist. As a teen, he played cello with the Los Angeles Junior Philharmonic. He was also childhood friends with Grammy nominated Guitarist David Becker.[2]


Earlier career


Breaking into the professional music scene, by the mid-1990s, Schulman was the drummer for the band Simple Minds for their album Good News from the Next World and toured with them after the album reached number 2 on the UK Albums Chart. Schulman returned to session work at the end of the tour.[3]

He is also co-owner, audio engineer, and music producer, at West Triad Studios in Venice, California.[4] When he first began as tour drummer for P!nk, then-manager Stacey Castro secured his first magazine covers.
