Frank Edwin Wright III, also known as Tré Cool, is the drummer of Green Day, a Pop Punk/alternative rock band. He replaced former drummer John Kiffmeyer (aka Al Sobrante).
Biography
Frank Edwin Wright III was born December 9, 1972 in Frankfurt, Germany, making him the youngest member of Green Day. He was raised in the rural northern California town of Willits, California with his father and two older siblings. Tré's closest neighbor was none other than Lookout! Records founder, Lawrence Livermore, who also played in the punk band, The Lookouts. At age 12, Livermore recruited Tré to join The Lookouts, and gave him the name of Tré Cool, ("très" translates as "very" from French, thus creating the name "very cool"). After Green Day's first tour, the original drummer, John Kiffmeyer decided to leave Green Day in order to attend college. Billie and Mike asked Tré, who was already a 5-year veteran of the Gilman Street scene, to be their drummer. Tré decided to drop out of high school his sophomore year. However, he did pass an equivalency test, earned his GED, and even began taking classes at a nearby community college. When the demands of Green Day's touring intensified, he had to drop out of college. Tré's father served as a driver for three of their tours. Frank Wright II, Tré's father says, "I watched them go from a bunch of kids to a group of musicians with work ethic. On their first tour or two, it was more of a party than anything else. I still scratch my head and say, 'How in the hell did they make it?' They used to practice in my living room here -- a lot of the songs they did on Dookie. You hear it coming together, and you don't expect people are going to go out and buy it. But when it does, you just say, 'Wow, that's so cool.'" (Rolling Stone, January 26, 1995) More on [ Tré Cool ]
