Jonathan Norton is one of the most popular and richest Drummer who was born on March 21, 1958 in United States.
In 1980 he relocated to Southern California to study with master percussionist, John Bergamo at California Institute of the Arts. His focus was World Music and percussion. Norton composed and performed with Loretta Livingston and Dancers for the “Music Center on Tour” educational outreach program, and started a long affiliation with Bella Lewitsky. He was a founding member of the world percussion trio, Sugba Sugba, facilitating healing rituals through rhythm and movement concerts on the West Coast. He appeared in the Mike Kelly/Steve Prina/Anita Pace production of Beat of the Traps which premiered in Vienna, Austria at the very first “Wiener Fest Wochen Art Festival”. Norton has performed with Native American Shaman and other musicians in the annual spring healing ritual on Mount Tamalpais in San Francisco, with Anna Halprin.
In 1993, Norton met eels front man Mark Oliver Everett, better known as “E”, and toured with him in support of his second solo album called “Broken Toy Shop” on Polygram records. The eels were officially founded when Norton and E met Tommy Walter. In 1996 the band released their debut album “Beautiful Freak”, a melancholy pop record with tormented lyrics. The singles “Novocaine for the Soul”, “Susan’s House” and “Your Lucky Day in Hell” achieved modest national and international success, winning the Best International Breakthrough Act award at the 1998 BRIT Awards. Their first video, “Novocaine for the Soul”, was directed by Mark Romanek and garnered several nominations for “Video of the Year”. Norton continued with E and the eels through four more albums.
