Aaron Gillespie

drummer/ vocalist for the Christian post-hardcore band Underoath. He is the only original member still with the band. He also has a side-project named The Almost. He plays with Meinl cymbals, Pro-mark drumsticks, and Truth custom drums. He has red hair. Aaron won musician of the month in AP magazine. He was raised in a poor family and could not afford cymbals for his first drumset as a child. Instead, his father fashioned cymbals out of some sheet metal. His father put in sprinkler systems for a living, so he traded the job for the drum kit to a doctor.
