    Shannon Larkin started playing drums at the age of 10. Although his parents were not musicians, they were still music lovers and turned Shannon on to bands like The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and The Who. However, it was his older sister who unknowingly ignited Shannon's passion to play by forcing him to repeatedly listen to her favorite album, Rush's Hemispheres. Then he turned on to Led Zeppelin, and then decided to ask his parents for a drum kit.

    Shannon is one of my personal favorites!
    He did play with Wrathchild America and even more recently he played in Another Animal which is Shannon, the bass player and guitarist from Godsmack as well as another guitarist and Ugly Kid Joe singer. I saw Another Animal open for Alterbridge a few years ago and AA ROCKED! Shannon was really kickin butt.

    1st time I saw Shannon was at this exact show right here at Bogarts in Cincinatti Ohio. I was at this show and was blown away by Shannon.
