Biography

Mario Minardi

I started playing drum at 13 years old. I joined my first professional band at 15. Through the years I’ve played in some really fun bands, with some great people: General Public, The Basics, and Rebel Rockers to name a few. I’ve travelled, recorded, played in front of thousands of people. At the end of the day, I love playing drums, and I love teaching people how to play drums.


My family moved to Temecula in 1977. I have seen our beautiful community blossom into a world-class destination. I work for Rancho Health, MSO as Director of Provider Relations; an amazing and gifted group of family and women’s health providers. It’s a dream come true to live and work in Temecula, and to continue to share my passion for drumming in my spare time.
