Early Life

Travis Landon Barker was born in Fontana, California, on November 14, 1975. Barker is the son of Randy and Gloria Barker. He got his hands on the drumsticks when he was only four years old. At the age of five, Barker began taking drum lessons with a skillful Michael Mai, who would expose a young drummer to experimenting with various playing styles. Travis also learned drumming skills from Thomas Hogan. 

Additionally, Travis tried himself in trumpet lessons, playing the piano, and singing. All in all, he would always come back to drums.

It was while at school that he joined the marching band and thus was exposed to regional competitions and festivals. In his last year at school, he toured with his first band, Feeble.

Career 

After graduating high school, Barker worked as a trash man until he found a temporary place in the punk group, The Aquabats, with whom, in 1997, he recorded his first album.

Barker earned his first breakthrough in 1998 when he was recruited to fill in on the drums for the punk rock group, Blink-182. His skills at playing the drums surfaced when he not only learned the drum tracks for 20 songs in 45 minutes but played the same with complete perfection and poise. 

Besides his involvement with Blink-182, he recorded tracks for Transplants, a rap/rock band. He also contributed to Dave Carlock’s band, The Distillers, and appeared in one of the videos of Puff Daddy, ‘Bad Boy for Life.’

In 2003, Blink-182 began to work on their next album. Interestingly, they let forgo the conventional recording process and instead turned a home into a studio. After months of working out, they released their fifth self-titled album, ‘Blink-182’.

The tracks from the album, ‘Feeling This’ and ‘I Miss You’ peaked high on the Billboard. In 2005, the band finally broke up calling for an ‘indefinite hiatus’. 

Furthermore, musical aspirations apart, he has a clothing and accessory company, ‘Famous Stars and Straps,’ his own record label, ‘LaSalle Records,’ and a restaurant in California, ‘Wahoo’s Fish Taco.’

As of January 2024, Travis Barker’s net worth is $50 Million.
