Tico Torres

Drummer for Bon Jovi

Born Hector Torres on September 7, 1953 to Hector and Emma in New York City. Soon after his birth, he and his parents moved to Cuba (his parents home country). Tico lived in Cuba long enough to absorb his Cuban style of music, before returning to the United States. He then lived in New Jersey, where he grew up and met Jon Bon Jovi.
Before Bon Jovi, Tico had already played on 26 albums. One night, a friend convinced him to go to a club to meet Jon. The two hit it off and started Bon Jovi. They have been together for over 17 years. Tico not only enjoys music, but loves to paint. He has had many exhibits around the world. He also has a pilots license and is married to Czechoslovakian super model Eva Herzigova.
