    Stephen Kendall Gadd (born April 9, 1945) is an American drummer, percussionist, and session musician. Gadd is one of the most well-known and highly regarded session and studio drummers in the industry, recognized by his induction into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1984. Gadd's performances on Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" and "Late in the Evening" and Steely Dan's "Aja" are examples of his style. He has worked with popular musicians from many genres including Simon & Garfunkel, Steely Dan, James Taylor, Harry Chapin, Joe Cocker, Grover Washington Jr., Chick Corea, Lee Ritenour, Paul Desmond, Kate Bush, Chet Baker, Al Di Meola, Kenny Loggins, Eric Clapton, Michel Petrucciani, and Toshiki Kadomatsu.
    Gadd grew up in Irondequoit, New York. He started playing the drums at a very early age. At age 11, he entered the Mickey Mouse National Talent Round Up contest and was one of the winners; he won a trip to California, where he met Walt Disney and appeared on The Mickey Mouse Club, where he played the drums and did a tap dancing routine. Gadd attended and graduated from Eastridge High School, then attended the Eastman School of Music, graduating in 1968. He was then drafted into the United States Army, where he served the next three years playing drums in the United States Army Field Band stationed at Ft. Meade, MD.
    Gadd has also worked with Chet Baker, Tony Banks, Jon Bon Jovi, Bee Gees, George Benson, Edie Brickell, Kate Bush, Stanley Clarke, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker, Chick Corea, Jim Croce, Christopher Cross, Pino Daniele, Paul Desmond, Al Di Meola, Art Farmer, Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Eddie Gómez, Dave Grusin, Bob James, Al Jarreau, Quincy Jones, Rickie Lee Jones, The Manhattan Transfer, Paul McCartney, Michael McDonald, Michel Petrucciani, Bonnie Raitt, Return to Forever, Diana Ross, David Sanborn, Carly Simon, Chuck Mangione, Paul Simon, Frank Sinatra, Phoebe Snow, Steps Ahead, Barbra Streisand, Stuff, Richard Tee, Michal Urbaniak, and Dionne Warwick.
    Gadd has written a book about the rudiments of drumming entitled Gaddiments, which will be released on Hudson Music in 2021.
    Gadd's influences included Buddy Rich, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, and the "less is more" style of Rick Marotta.

      He’s a real composer. So much more interesting to listen to than the chops mania that dominates contemporary drumming, even if it’s not as technically flashy

      @@jackmaguire1158 Exactly. Gadd has that ability to take a simple quarter note and put it in just the right spot so you can really appreciate the value of that note.It's easy to throw every chop you've learned at something and that's what it ends up sounding like.Gadd like you say composes. He utilizes space, giving the notes structure in that way.He's also great with contrasting nice rhythmic textures tastefully with what the band is doing.

    I've always heard of Steve Gadd, but I had no idea how much of a Master Technician he is. I'm a self taught drummer and had the usual suspects of drummers as inspirations. After hearing this dude play, I'm barely in pre-school. My mind and ears totally blown.

      I heard him modestly say once that he became more focused on it after spending lots of time originally on technique, but I'm sure he's always had groove coming out his pores.
