Morando, Who Has Played Drums in Different Bands, Describes Himself as Having Been ‘Super Focused’

In 2016, Morando told Modern Drummer, “Hey MD! I’m Maxx Morando, drummer of the Regrettes. I’m eighteen years old and have been playing drums since I was eight and joined the School of Rock in Hollywood. I met some of my bandmates there, three of whom are Sage, Genessa, and Lydia of the Regrettes. My main influences are Phil Collins, Keith Moon, and Jack Bevan.”

He added:

We just finished a West Coast tour opening for the amazing band Sleigh Bells. Our debut album will be released on January 13, 2017. We’re excited that the incredible Mike Elizondo produced our record. The recording process was extremely fun and taught me so much. We recorded live, straight to tape, all in the same room, all at the same time. I was super focused on getting the best take every time as I couldn’t go back and re-do little parts.

It taught me to just play drums like I usually would, comfortably. It brought out some really great takes.

At the moment, I’m playing a three-piece vintage Rogers 1972 kit, with a Ludwig Acrolite snare and Zildjian cymbals. I use hickory Vater 5A sticks.

In 2019, Morando described the heavy touring schedule as a drummer for Liily to 4See, “Especially when you’re in Europe, cos we left for Europe for two weeks then we came back home, and we were home for maybe two and a half weeks, then we’re back in Europe, and it’s like the time, and it’s a lot of…”
