Shirley Drake is the drummer of Underworld.
She was born on February 12th, 1984. She is an only child and that may explain her wierdness to some degree, but not entirely. She insists that she is was born a pure werewolf, one of the last of her kind. Things like this have lead her bandmembers, family members and friends alike to doubt her sanity, especially since she has been known to act like the Tasmanian Devil on full moon nights. Her saving grace is that she is one of the most fabulous drummers north of Chicago. She has been playing for 10 years and works as a studio drummer, an on-call live drummer for many great bands, and also gives lessons from time to time.
Shirley likes tattoos and piercings, skateboarding, playing with her IPOD and various electronic gadgets, collecting action figures, playing video games, writing, reading magazines and books, and beating the living shit out of her drums.
Some of her favorite bands are Garbage, No Doubt, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, The Donnas, Seether, Mudvayne, Avenged Sevenfold, Finch, Nine Inch Nails, Skinny Puppy, Spoon, Atreyu, Evanescence, Muse, Eighteen Visions, Tsunami Bomb, My Bloody Valentine, Curve, Biohazard, Cold, Jawbreaker, A Static Lullabye, Marilyn Manson, A Perfect Circle, Tool, Disturbed, 311, Vixtrola, Killswitch Engage and 36 Crazyfists.
Shirley's favorite song to play live: BREAKING BENJAMIN: "AWAY"
