About Joseph:
Joseph Arrington was born in the small town of Orem, UT, and pursued drums throughout high school  and long into his transplant to Sacramento, CA. In California, he paired up with artists such as A Lot Like Birds, Sianvar, Royal Coda, Kurt Travis, and Love Mischief to kick out more than two dozen albums and 25 full US tours in 9 years.  He has also toured internationally with acts such as Chiodos, We Came as Romans, Amity Affliction, Scary Kids Scaring Kids and more.  Modern Drummer Magazine’s 2017 Reader’s Poll considered him in the Top 4 Progressive Drummers of the year.

To this day, Joesph continues to hone his skills as a music educator, teaching on tour and remotely. He;s currently cooking up endless 4-course drum meals for a new project “Gold Necklace” as well as prepare for Royal Coda’s upcoming new releases on the horizon.

When Joesph isn’t drumming, he enjoys martial arts, reading, a good indie video game, and cooking and enjoying Nashville hot chicken.
