Mark Guiliana has become recognized as one of the world’s leading drummers, admired and in-demand across the spectrum from jazz to rock to electronic music for his rhythmic sophistication, creative impulse and individual sound.
“One of the most influential drummers of his generation”
— JAZZ TIMES
“A drummer around whom a cult of admiration has formed”
— NEW YORK TIMES
“Guiliana may well be at the forefront of an exciting new style of drummer…”
— MODERN DRUMMER MAGAZINE
Mark Guiliana has been in the vanguard of drummers creating a new vernacular on the instrument, blending virtuosity on acoustic drums with artfully deployed electronic beats and processing. Guiliana brings the same adventurous spirit, eclectic palette and gift for spontaneous invention to a staggering range of styles.
Guiliana was chosen as “Best Jazz Drummer” in the Modern Drummer Reader’s Poll (2017), while Downbeat Magazine dubbed him a “Rising Star” in its’ Critics Poll. Guiliana’s debut album, BEAT MUSIC! BEAT MUSIC! BEAT MUSIC! was Nominated for a 2020 GRAMMY® Award for “Best Contemporary Album”. Guiliana’s sophomore album, The Sound of Listening (2022), was given 4.5 out of 5 Stars by Downbeat Magazine and has received rave reviews. PopMatters states it is “the kind of music that makes “jazz” relevant to fresh ears”.
Along with leading his own groups Marc Guiliana has appeared on a string of acclaimed recordings with others. The verve and precision of Guiliana’s drumming was a prime mover of Blackstar, David Bowie’s Multiple GRAMMY® Award-Winning final album. Guiliana teamed with keyboardist Brad Mehldau as the duo Mehliana for the Nonesuch release Taming the Dragon, and he has also collaborated with such artists as guitar hero John Scofield, Soundgarden/Pearl Jam drummer-songwriter Matt Cameron, neo-soul singer-songwriter Meshell Ndegeocello, guitarist-vocalist Lionel Loueke, jazz bassist Avishai Cohen, reggae/hip-hop artist Matisyahu and jazz singer Gretchen Parlato.
