Mark ‘Schmitty” Schmidt

Drummer and Back Up Vocals of STORM. You know Schmitty from his stint with STORM from 1991-1992 and from his days earlier with Premier. (Ah the long hair metal bands, of glam rock we loved them!) He now reunites with Jeff and Eddie to once again Rock the Northwoods.
His influences include Tommy Aldridge while he was with Ozzy, and to quote Schmitty “…just about any 80's heavy metal drummers music I could get my hands on.” Style wise he has been comparable to Aldridge and Tommy Lee. He is basically straight forward and loud!! Very loud! “I started playing in 1983 thanks in part to watching the Partidge Family and listening to my brothers' Ted Nugent and AC/DC albums.”
