Glen Sobel is a drummer born and raised in the LA area. He took advantage of what the city had to offer in the way of music education and access to shows featuring many of the world's top performers. After spending much time in different musical situations in High School and college and winning various local drumming competitions he got his first pro gig at the age of 21 playing with guitar virtuoso Tony Macalpine. Glen recorded one CD with Tony as well as performing live shows around the west coast. This led to several other gigs in the same genre including guitarists Chris Impellitteri, Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson's guitarist), and Gary Hoey, all of whom he has recorded and toured with in the States, Europe, and Japan.

During this time Glen began to establish himself as a respected plyer and teacher in LA being hired on as instructor at both Musicians Institute (Percussion Institute of Technology) and the Los Angeles Music Academy (LAMA).

Eager to prove himself in several genres, Glen took a gig in 2000 playing and recording with SX10, a rap/metal hybrid project featuring Sendog of Cypress Hill as well as several other hip hop stars like Everlast, Kottonmouth Kings, B-Real, ect. This was then followed by an offer to join Warner Brothers recording artists Beautiful Creatures, a straight up hard rock outfit with whom Glen recorded the debut CD and went on several different high profile tours such as Ozzfest 2001, Marilyn Manson, Saliva, ect. The group played about 140 shows in a year, overseas and in the states.
