Born on June 14, 1993, in Peoria, Arizona, Luke Daniel Holland developed an interest in drumming at the age of 10 after hearing his neighbor play. He saved money from mowing lawns for a year to purchase his first drum kit, learning to play by himself. Holland further honed his skills by playing the snare drum in his high school marching band at Peoria High School from 2007 to 2008. His early exposure to drumming and self-discipline set the foundation for his future career.
Holland began his professional journey by joining local band Oceans Will Part. At 15, he started promoting himself online, creating a YouTube channel, ‘LukeHollandDrums,’ in July 2009 to post drum covers and remixes. His online presence rapidly grew, attracting significant attention after fellow YouTuber Josh Chomik noticed his channel. This exposure led to his subscriber count growing from one thousand to over nine thousand in a few days. By 2016, his channel had amassed over 620,000 subscribers and more than 55 million views, establishing him as a prominent figure in the online drumming community.
From early 2012 to late 2016, Holland was a member of the metalcore band The Word Alive. During his tenure, he contributed to their albums ‘Real’ (2014) and ‘Dark Matter’ (2016). After leaving The Word Alive, Holland shifted his focus to his YouTube channel, session work, drum lessons, and occasional tours. His session work includes recording drums for I See Stars’ album ‘Treehouse’ (2016) and Jason Richardson’s debut album ‘I’ (2016). In 2013, he received recognition from Alternative Press as the third ‘Drummer of the Year’ and Modern Drummer’s second ‘Up & Coming’ drummer. In 2017, he formed the band The Evening with Elijah Trey and Taylor Larson, and also performed with Playboi Carti on Jimmy Kimmel Live! More recently, Holland has served as the drummer for Falling in Reverse, appearing in their music video for “Zombified” and contributing to their upcoming album ‘Popular Monster’ (2024). He also played drums for Starset’s 2019 album ‘Divisions’ and collaborated with Jason Richardson on their second album, ‘II’ (2022).
