Alabama Luelle Barker’s Father, Travis Barker – Short Bio
Travis Landon Barker was born on 14 November 1975, in Fontana, California, USA, the son of Gloria and Randy Barker – his mother died from complications of the rare Sjogren syndrome the day before he started high school.
, Travis got his first drum kit when he was four years old, which he used throughout his childhood and into his teenage years. He was trained by Michael Mai, and he also started trumpet lessons when he was just five years old. Moreover, he learned to play the piano, and even tried out as a singer, but always returned to drums.
He attended Fontana High School, and has said that he was a stoner during those years, but was still sober enough to play the drums in the jazz ensemble, and snare drum in the marching band. Performing at various school festivals helped him gain experience in various drumming styles.
After matriculation, he worked briefly as a trash man in Laguna Beach, but that was just to pay the bills. He met Chad Larson as they both played in the punk rock band Feeble; the two later worked in the Aquabats, and in 1997 released their debut album “The Fury of the Aquabats!”
To promote the album, the band went on a tour with Blink-182, then after Blink-182’s drummer announced his departure from the band after the end of the tour, Travis was recruited as the new drummer. His first album with the group was “Enema of the State”, which came out in 1999, and spawned such hits as “Adam’s Song”, “All the Small Things” and others, while it achieved multiple platinum status in the US.
Travis and the group enjoyed success with the next couple of albums, “Take Off Your Pants and Jacket” (2001), which topped the US Billboard 200 chart, and achieved double platinum status in the USA, spawning “The Rock Show” and “First Date” hits in the process, and the 2003 album “Blink-182”, which was certified platinum in the US.
The band went on an hiatus until the late 2000s, during which time Travis worked on other projects, including with the band Transplants. and the TRV$DJAM duo he created with the DJ Adam Goldstein.
However, during this time, Travis was also involved in a tragic plane crash. On 19 September 2008, he and Adam were set to take flight in Learjet 60 alongside two pilots, Barker’s personal assistant, Chris Baker, and Che Still. However, just before the take-off, the plane’s tire exploded and caught fire, which forced the pilots to cancel the take-off. Unfortunately, the aircraft continued straight through the airport’s fence, crossed the highway, and hit a bank. In the aftermath, Travis and Goldstein were the only ones to survive, though Barker spent three months in hospitals as he suffered life-threatening injuries as most of his body was burnt, and had numerous operations.
He later sued the owners of the plane, Goodyear Tire, and Rubber Co, but also the airplane maintenance company. The legal action was settled out of court, but he never talked about the conditions of the settlement.
He continued his music career, and since then, Blink-182 has reunited and released albums “Neighborhoods” (2011), “California” (2016), and “Nine” (2019). Travis also released his solo album “Give the Drummer Some” in 2011, and has collaborated with several artists, including Machine Gun Kelly and Avril Lavigne.
In addition to his prolific career as a musician, Travis is an accomplished businessman, entrepreneur, and an author – his net worth has been estimated at $50 million as of mid- 2022.
