Description: (The Drummer of the Rock Band 'The Beatles')

Ringo Starr is a famous English musician, songwriter, and singer. He became popular as the drummer of the famous band ‘The Beatles.’ Though he suffered from illnesses for most part of his childhood, his poor medical condition inspired him to make a mark in the world of ‘rock and roll.’ When ‘The Beatles’ was formed, he was a member of another band called ‘Rory Storm and the Hurricanes.’ After receiving moderate acclaim with that group, he joined ‘The Beatles,’ replacing Pete Best – it was a move that changed his life for good! With his inclusion in the group, the band started featuring on most international music charts. Although his contribution to music as part of the band was not lauded as expected, he became a well-recognized figure in the world of music. Apart from music, this famous personality has also been featured in a number of documentaries and television shows. He has also hosted the television series ‘Thomas & Friends.’ He is also the founder of a supergroup called ‘Ringo Starr and His All-Starr Band.’
