Ryan O'Keeffe is drummer and co-founding member of hard rocking Australian outfit Aurbourne. Along with his brother Joel (vocals/lead guitar), Ryan founded the band from their mutual love of bands such as Rose Tattoo, Van Halen, Motörhead, AC/DC and The Angels.



Born and raised in the rural town of Warrnambool – population: 32,000 – the local pastimes revolved around playing football and falling down drunk. For a young Ryan, however, his only interest was devouring the albums he’d stolen from his uncle.
