Kate Schellenbach's story is one of punk rock roots, groundbreaking sounds, and musical versatility. As a founding member of the Beastie Boys, Schellenbach’s role in the early days of the band laid the foundation for their journey from hardcore punk to hip-hop superstardom. Her raw drumming style and punk attitude helped shape the band's initial identity, and although her time with them was short-lived, her impact was undeniable. Born on January 5, 1966, in New York City, Schellenbach’s passion for music began in the thriving, DIY punk scene of the early 1980s, a world that fostered her fierce drumming talent and set the stage for her career.
