One of the leading rock drummers of his generation, Carmine Appice possesses a dynamic, technically adroit style that helped bridge the gap between hard rock and heavy metal. Initially a member of the 1960s progressive psych-rock band Vanilla Fudge, Appice formed the proto-metal outfit Cactus and gained fame in the power trio Beck, Bogert & Appice. Following the group's eponymous 1973 debut, he became a sought-after sideman, playing with Rod Stewart in the 1970s, and in the '80s and '90s with Ozzy Osbourne, Pink Floyd, and many more. He is also an educator who regularly holds clinics and symposiums, and has produced numerous books and videos, including his popular drumming manual Realistic Rock Drum Method. Along with his clinics and session work, Appice has continued to record, working with his brother, drummer Vinny Appice, with whom he recorded 2017's Sinister. He issued Guitar Zeus in 2019, and in 2021, the collaborative Energy Overload with guitarist Fernando Perdomo.
Carmine Appice has also released music as a member of Mother's Army, Blue Murder, Beck, Bogert & Appice, Travers & Appice, Appice, KGB, Pat Travers Band, Michael Schenker Group, King Kobra, and Vanilla Fudge.
