DAVE MORAATA -Inside the Beat: Interview with Saving Abel’s Dynamic Drummer

Published on: 10th December, 2025

Hey guys we’re back with a brand new episode and ready to rock out with our next guest on Nashville On The Rocks. I’m your host Lisa Karkos and on today’s show, our guest is a powerhouse drummer from Philadelphia, Mississippi, best known for his dynamic work with Saving Abel. With around 30 songs recorded under his belt, he's not just keeping the beat—he’s a creative force helping artists write, arrange, and bring their music to life. From rocking massive festivals to playing intimate venues where every breath counts, he approaches every stage with equal heart and energy. 

A true chameleon behind the kit, he’s collaborated and filled in with multiple bands across genres, always focused on growth, staying grounded, and making every song truly come alive.

So grab a drink, sit back as we dive into this conversation with our friend, the talented Dave Moratta.
