Music alumnus working as successful band leader with Galactic

Stanton Moore, ’94, is band leader for Galactic, Moore and More, and Garage a Trois. Moore was a featured artist in Modern Drummer magazine in July 2008. He is also a contributing columnist for Drum! Magazine.

When he’s not on tour with Galactic, Moore stays very involved in education, teaching private lessons in New Orleans and on the road. Showing a rare versatility, he has appeared within the same year on albums with Heavy Metal Grammy nominees Corrosion of Conformity’s In the Arms of God, Irma Thomas’ After the Rain and Robert Walter’s Super Heavy Organ. In 2005, he launched a signature line of cymbals with Bosphorus Cymbals and a signature drum stick with the Vic Firth stick company.
