Ten Finger Orchestra (real name: Paul Allen) plays four instruments at once (guitar, bass, drums, vocals) and Johnny Rabb has added turntables to his arsenal of innovative drum sounds.
Johnny Rabb refers to his drum / turntable set up as DrumJockey. The visual antics of the Ten Finger Orchestra and Johnny Rabb show include juggling routines using drumsticks while they are playing.

Johnny Rabb is also busy touring as a drum clinician worldwide. He gained world wide fame thanks to his uncanny ability to play rolls at an incredible speed. In 200 Johnny Rabb was the winner of the first competition for The World’s Fastest Drummer.
In doing so, Johnny came to the attention of the Guinness World Records committee. The drummer was asked to defend his title live at the Guinness World Records Experience in Orlando, Florida. The attempt was documented by VH-1 for a show called Rock & Roll Record Breakers. Johnny not only defended but broke the existing world record of 1026 to play 1071 single strokes in 60 seconds.
