Nicolas “Niky” Pierro joined Reel in 2021, and he is living proof that passion can change everything.
A natural, instinctive, and determined talent, he has turned his energy into rhythm and his anger into creative strength.
For him, music has become a form of freedom, a way to release what words alone could never express.

He grew up in a family where music was always present: his brother played guitar, and Niky always dreamed of sharing the stage with him.
When their paths eventually parted, Niky chose not to stop, he kept walking on his own, finding in the drums his most authentic voice.

Influenced by artists such as Danny Carey, Chad Smith, Glenn Hughes, and Bring Me the Horizon, Niky has carved out his own path through a personal language built on groove, intensity, and pure instinct.

Today, he is the beating heart of Reel: precise, powerful, and constantly evolving.
Every strike he delivers is not just rhythm, but a fragment of his story, told with the honesty of someone who truly lives through music.
