Profile Information
- About Me:
- Born in Ithaca, New York Karl has spent the majority of his life in the Syracuse, NY area. Having grown up in a musical household, it was a natural thing for Karl to take to music and drums, in particular. Both of Karl's parents attended the Ithaca College School of Music. Karl's father, Bob Sterling is a drummer, composer/arranger, and leader of several successful bands in the Central New York area for many years. His mother, Helen majored in vocal studies at Ithaca College and is also a talented pianist.
It was in 1970 when Karl was 9 years old that he first saw legendary drummer BuddyRich. At that very point he KNEW the drums were his instrument and started seriously studying and practicing. His first teacher was his father and after 4 years, at the age of 13, he started playing gigs with his dad's band. Karl also met and became friends with drummer Peter Erskine in 1972 at age 11. Peter had just graduated from high school and was on his first tour with the Stan Kenton Band. Karl and Peter have stayed in touch ever since.
Karl attended Onondaga Community College for 2 years majoring in music and studying percussion with John Barker. Karl has also studied drums with Danny D'Imperio, Joe Morello, Mike Melito, Wilby Fletcher, Mick Lewander, and Peter Erskine.
Over the years, Karl has had the good fortune to play with many wonderful musicians and bands in the Syracuse, Rochester, and New York City area's including; Ronnie Leigh, Nancy Kelly, Dave Castiglione, Dino Losito, Jeff Palmer, Devin Garramone, Andy Calabrese, Rick Montalbano, Ron France, Bob DiBaudo, John Rohde, Mark Copani, Larry Arlotta, Mala Waldron, Steve Salerno, Miriam Sullivan, Classified, Eye Level, Moss, Prime Time, Seaflight, Diamond in the Rough, Dave Hanlon's Cookbook, John Puma, Rick Sheppard and "The Drifters" and many others.
Also an avid bicyclist, two summers ago Karl and his son, Nick bicycled over 1,700 miles in 14 days to raise money for the Children's Miracle Network. Check out the cool video of their arrival in Dallas along with trip photos below. You can also check out the trip site at: bicyclingforlife.org.

PETER ERSKINE'S REVIEW OF THE NEW ESP CD, "TIME'S UP!"
"I first met Karl Sterling when his parents brought him to a Stan Kenton Orchestra gig in upstate New York. He was a young drummer. This was 1972. Come to think of it, I was a young drummer at the time, too ... but Karl was younger! Karl's parents were justifiably proud of their son and how well he played. Some thirty five-plus years later, I'm the one who is feeling proud of how well Karl plays: proud that he stayed the course with his drumming, and proud that he matured into such a terrific dr… Continue

Julie Oscars-Johnson said… - Thanks very much Karl for the wonderful welcome! I didn't realize this site was for musicians. ( As I noted, I do play the radio. It's a steady gig and very rewarding! I like Jane Librizzi on WAER and Eric C. on Fri.'s at 3 pm for the B-3 Bonanza.) So, it's special to hear from you! Thanks for creating this site. I sent the link to my Dad in Las Vegas and he loves it! (He's the person that got me hooked on jazz when I was a little girl. Thanks! Dad!)
We are so fortunate to live in a great community with so many talented and creative individuals like you Karl. Julie

- Hi Karl.
Great being here. Now I just have to make my page look ok with some info and stuff :-) Thank you for inviting me in.
Everything is good here, I'm leaving for the US the 24th this month.
Yes, Bev told me, we talked just before you were going to do the interview. So sad I couldn't listen to it. Do you have a sort of streaming of it on the internet or something?
I would love to do an interview, thank you for asking :)
Just let me know the best way to do this.
Ok - have a great weekend Karl and TTYL

Dana Marcine said… - Hi Karl: I can't believe it took me so long to join this site. It is too cool ...and you are so cool to create it. Thanks so much and see you on Halloween at the hotel. Rob Hunt is on the gig too with Angus and Joe. I will be in my best witchy costume. Remember me for the jazz festivals. Dana

Dan Skidmore said… - Karl - Thanks for the welcome to the site.
Ken Satterfield stopped over last night. We jammed a little and talked some business (music retail, of all things). I've got a thing in Nov. where I'm going over business plans, etc. Ken mentioned that you might be a good resource on the RE end of things. If this works out I could be in touch in a few weeks.
Hang in there....
