notes

Angelo, an amazing ten-year-old drummer from Detroit, first gained national attention by becoming one of the youngest winners ever (at age 8) on the TV show “America’s Most Talented Kids”. On the show, he gave a knockout performance of “Rock & Roll All Nite” by KISS in full KISS makeup. He has been featured on Metro Detroit news broadcasts for the work he has done playing at many charitable functions all over the Detroit area like Walk America, Heart Walk, Easter Seals, and the Lymphoma and Leukemia Foundation. In addition to his charity work Angelo has performed as entertainment on a professional level. In 2005 Angelo performed a set of KISS classics for a packed ballroom at the Chicago KISS Expo. In attendance was KISS drummer Eric Singer, one of Angelo's idols, who was amazed by Angelo’s performance.

Angelo incorporates many styles of rock on his debut release "Pound For Pound", and not only performs all of the drum tracks but takes on all of the vocal chores as well. He co-wrote all of the songs with his dad, Joe, who also plays keyboards and guitars on the disc. The CD also has special appearances by guitarist Bob Halverson of the Bob Halverson Band and 14 year old bass ace Aaron Hayes of Dusk Decides Our Fate. Take a listen and see why this kid is "Pound For Pound" one of the best.

    Amazing! An incredible collection of tracks that anyone would be proud to call their own. Rock and roll is safe if this is it's future.

  • Angelo Rocks the House
    author: New York Rocks TV

    Nine year old Angelo Rocks the House with his superior drumming which is beyond his years. His unique style of drumming will bring him recognition as well as a huge fan base. Angelo is an up and coming artist that will most definitely make an impact in the music world.

  • "Pound For Pound" does it for me!
    author: JD

    Angelo Coppola is probably pound for pound (sorry, I couldn't resist) one of the best up and coming drummers from the midwest. Heavy in groove witout being over complicated. Something new that sounds like it's been around for a while. Most peole this age would be concerned with showing off the chops as a debut but Angelo approaches "Pound For Pound" as a seasoned pro.

  • author: Piper/Dirty Americans

    Awesome stuff with a lot of depth beyond his years. Angelo's a true rocker. You're gonna hear a lot oabout this kid!!!!

  • Angelo is a someone we are all gonna hear about in years to come !
    author: Eric Singer

    Angelo Coppola is a drummer we are all gonna hear about in years to come ! This kid allreay has all the right ingredients of a great drummer. His mature sense of style and taste at such a young age leaves me to believe that there is an "old soul" inside this kid !!

  • Future rock star in the making...
    author: Patrice Beaudette

  • Renews My Faith in Rock & Roll
    author: Colette Shaw

    From the thunderous intro of the title track “Pound for Pound,” I knew Angelo Coppola had the goods to someday bring good-time rock & roll back to the glory it deserves. Angelo is a talented drummer, swinging sticks like baseball bats and immersing himself in the passion of the music he plays. As a singer, his lyrics and his voice are age-appropriate and just plain fun. Angelo reminds us all that rock was supposed to be FUN! From “Sk8board Maniac” to the cleverly titled “I Don’t Love You (But I Like You a Lot),” Angelo sings his truth and sends us on a trip that is both nostalgic and optimistic. I love him exactly as he his, but I can’t wait to hear what Angelo hits us with next.

  • Angelo Coppola really gives us Pound for Pund with this solid debut.
    author: John Shanks; Producer Universal Records

    Top notch playing for a Debut release on an Indie label, Hard hitting straight up Rock and Roll sound, I highly recommend this to all.

  • Amazing for his age. What will future hold
    author: Joe Capp

    This is an album for young and old. The arrangements are versitile and tasteful. Many styles of Rock are represented. Could easily be adapted to commercials and movies. SK8board manic and Hit em Hard could be bona fide HITS
