Virginia – United States , drummer and percussionist , Scott Travis , was born on Sept 6 1961 .

He always wanted to be a drummer of some famous band and that’s when he came across Judas Priest ; one of the most prominent and efficient band of those times.
As a teenager, he had often thought about setting up his drum kit in the parking lot at the Hampton in hopes that the band would notice him as they went past with their tour bus. He finally decided to wait at the back of the arena to hand the band a tape of his playing🎧. Travis auditioned for the vacant position and became their new member, thus becoming the first non-Briton to perform for the band. He has been with the band ever since and also handles drum duties.
