Peters, Lori (Drummer)

Posted by: gretchen on February 25, 2006 |

Drummer Lori Peters has been playing drums for 17 years. She is modest, but practical about her skills, laughing: “I wreck a lot of cymbals: but we’re playing rock here, you know? There’s a stigma about being a girl in a rock band, as well as being a female and a drummer. I started out hitting hard.”
