BOB GULLOTTI

American jazz drummer, born in 1949. Died January 25, 2020 from discogs One of Boston’s finest, he inspired generations of musicians as a drummer, educator, and cofounder of the Fringe. Gullotti was the drummer for the Fringe, an innovative free-jazz trio that he cofounded in 1972. The Fringe quickly became a seminal act on the Boston scene, with longstanding residencies across several clubs and other venues. In addition, he headed his own Bob Gullotti Project. Gullotti also toured with the likes of J.J. Johnson, Joe Lovano, and John Patitucci, and was known to fans of the jam band Phish for his sit-ins with the group (and work with Phish member Trey Anastasio on the latter’s project Surrender to the Air). from https://jazztimes.com
