Gene Krupa was born January 15, 1909, in Chicago, Illinois. While he was classically trained as a percussionist, there was never much doubt in Krupa’s mind that his main interest was playing drums in freewheeling jazz groups. He became a professional in 1925 when he was 16, working in Chicago with bands led by Al Gale, Joe Kayser, and Leo Shukin, plus briefly with the Benson Orchestra of Chicago and the Seattle Harmony Kings.
