Vinnie Colaiuta

vinnie colaiuta (d. 5 şubat 1956), pensilvanya, abd doğumlu amerikalı baterist. tekniği ve çok yönlülüğü sayesinde, pek çok farklı müzik türünden pek çok sanatçıyla beraber çalışma imkânı bulmuştur.

colaiuta iki kez aday gösterildiği grammy ödülü'nü kazanmıştır..

kariyeri 
colaiuta'nın ilk önemli işi christopher morris band ile oldu. 1976-1977 yılları arasında grupta kalan colaiuta, daha sonra frank zappa'nın the black page isimli parçasında yer aldı. zappa, colaiuta'nın performansından etkilendi ve beraber çalışmalara başladı. colaiuta; tinsel town rebellion, joe's garage ve shut up 'n play yer guitar albümlerinde yer aldı. joe's garage'daki performansı ile, 1993 yılında modern drummer tarafında tüm zamanların en iyi bateristlik performansı sıralamasında ilk 25'e girmeyi başardı.

1990'lı yıllarda ise, colaiuta sting'de yer aldı. the soul cages albümünün turnesinde gruba katılan colaiuta, sonraki yedi sene boyunca da grupta yer aldı. brand new day albümünden önce ise gruptan ayrıldı, sebebi ise sting'in oldukça uzun süren turneleriydi. ten summoner's tales (1993) ve mercury failing (1996) albümlerinin tamamına, brand new day'in (1999) üç şarkısında, sacred love'un (2003) ise iki şarkısına katkıda bulundu. sacred love'un turnesinde gruba geri dönen colaiuta, daha sonra tekrar gruptan ayrıldı. 2011'de ise gruba konserlerde eşlik etti. 1994'te kendi adını taşıyan bir solo albüm yayınladı.

colaiuta, modern drummer'ın okur anketlerinde 18 kere yılın bateristi seçilmiştir. ayrıca 1996'da modern drummer'ın hall of fame'ine seçilmiştir.

2004'te ise, hayranı olduğu rob bowman'ın elektra filminin şarkılarında bateristlik yaptı. aynı sene içerisinde, megadeth'in the system has failed albümünde de bateristlik yaptı, fakat albümün sadece kayıtlarında yer aldı, konserlerde grupta yer almadı. 2006-2007 arasında ise; bas gitarda jeff beck ve tal wilkenfield, klavyede jason rebello ile beraber eric clapton'ın crossroads guitar festival organizyonunda yer aldı. ayrıca faith hill ile beraber çalıştı. jeff beck ve herbie hancock ile turneye çıktı. 2008'de ise five peace band ile avrupa'da turneye çıktı. 2009'da ise frank zappa'nın öğrencileri tommy mars, bruce fowler, walt fowler, arthur barrow ile beraber the mar vista philharmonic'te yer aldı. grup, çalışmalarını jon larsen'in plak şirketi zonic entertainment ile beraber sürdürdü.

colaiuta, günümüze kadar pek çok grup ve sanatçıyla beraber çalışmalar yapmıştır. pop ve rock türünde; gino vannelli, joni mitchell, barbra streisand, sandy & junior, jay vaquer, clannad, wang chung, chaka khan, megadeth, the beach boys, leonard cohen ve jeff beck gibi isimlerde çalıştı. ayrıca; chick corea, herbie hancock, jimmy haslip, quincy jones, buddy rich big band ve buell neidlinger gibi caz müzisyenleri ile beraber çalışmalar yaptı. bunların dışında; chuck loeb, david goldblatt, david sancious, dean brown, jeff porcaro, jim beard, john patitucci, joe satriani, mark egan, gigi d'alessio, robben ford, ve tim landers gibi isimlerle de çalışma imkânı buldu..

ekipmanları 
colaiuta, ludwig davullarını tercih etmektedir. ludwig'den önce ise yamaha ve gretsch davullarını kullanmaktaydı. zil olarak ise 2012'den beri paiste zillerini kullanmakta, özellikle de 602 serisini tercih etmektedir. paiste'den önce ise uzun süre zildjian zillerini ve bagetlerini kullanmaktaydı. 2013'ten itibaren ise vic firth bagetlerini kullanmaya başlamıştır.
