Drummer for the band Chicago, Walfredo Reyes Jr. combines the rich history of Latin, Afro-Cuban and World Percussion with the drum set. For Walfredo Reyes, Jr., fusing the two disciplines has been his driving passion. In fact, by blazing this path, Reyes has challenged the technical levels of our instrument. Born in Cuba, raised in Puerto Rico, and culminating his musical style in the U.S., Wally (Walfredo Jr.) learned the traditions from the master, his father Walfredo Sr. He married those principles with his love of the drum set, coming up with his own truly global rhythmic style. Simply put, Wally is able to sound like a drummer and a percussionist at the same time. Add blistering chops and a penchant for playing unusual patterns to the mix, and you have only a small idea of what this man can do.
Not surprisingly, this “one man percussion show” has gathered an impressive list of gigs over the years, including touring and / or recording with: Carlos Santana, Traffic, Steve Winwood, Jackson Browne, Celia Cruz, Gloria Estefan, David Lindley, Ricki Lee Jones, Richard Marx, Sergio Mendes, Smokey Robinson, Robbie Robertson, Joe Sample, Boz Scaggs, Christina Aguilera, Ricky Martin, Johnny Hallyday, Khaled, Lindsey Buckingham, Chicago and many others.
Because of his versatility, Walfredo continues to be one of the most in demand musicians in the world today.

Walfred Reyes Jr. breaks down patterns from his album and talks about how to apply them musically in his masterclass "Exploring Grooves From Around The World"! 🌐 drumchannel.com/lesson/live-lesson-with-walfredo-reyes-jr/
He was the first pro drummer I ever saw play in person. Around 25 years ago I went to my first drum clinic and couldn't believe the sounds I was hearing. He is still a beast!
Yes! I agree!!...Saw him in the 80’s
You have to hear him live to appreciate his feel! Very humble man!! Hung out with
this father Walfredo Reyes sr. in
Las Vegas in the late 80’s!!....
Fantastic percussionist!!!
Super Bad Ass Wally. Fuego 🔥
¡Fantastico!
Maracatu, do Brasil para o mundo!!!!
That is beautiful Wally!!!
Just fantastic!
The snare and cymbals cut so nicely solid mix sometimes trying to hard to be different leads to unpleasant tones and rhythms this is a great reminder if it ain’t broke don’t fix it 🤟🥁🤟
Hot Damn!!
He really figured that part of the world out. I can't do that.
I believe Danny is playing drums with them
Scott Kettner is the absolute spokesman (besides Brazilians, of course) of Maracatu. Rich with African ancestry where a “beat” is tied closely to culture -you need to ask permission from some villages to use, write or learn their version of it. Much harder than it looks. Better, played messy!
