Zen O'Clock

Zen O’Clock, aka Alessandro Zenesini, was born in Milano in 1977; his first approach to music began at the age of 15 studying guitar, partly out of curiosity and partly to follow his father’s footsteps, a professional drummer for about 5 years.

He studied guitar and solfeggio for about 4 years, at the Villa Lobos academy in Paderno Dugnano, with maestro Alessio Sabino, and then switched to drums at the age of 19 and studied with maestro Tony Arco for about 2 years.

Together with Chris Punk and 3 other members, he founded their first band, Fata Morgana, but over the years he played with various bands, Rock, Rockabilly, Hard Rock and Pop.

As a final improvement, in recent years, due to stage needs, he has started playing with sequencer and therefore with the use of the click, which has improved his timing and groove.

Zen O’Clock considers himself as a drummer who must provide the band with a solid rhythmic base, without too many frills, thus guaranteeing a powerful but at the same time stable rhythm section.
