IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Drummer Floyd Sneed was born on November 22, 1943 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. He has a sister named Maxine Sneed and a brother named Bernie Sneed. His parents were both musicians at their local church. Floyd originally planned on being a soccer player, but ultimately decided to become a drummer, instead (his first drum kit was a gift from his sister, Maxine). The first group Sneed was a member of was the "Tommy Chong Band", with actor/musician Tommy Chong of Cheech & Chong fame. In 1966, Floyd formed his own group called "Heat Wave" and moved to Los Angeles, California. In 1968, Sneed joined the hugely popular 70s rock band, Three Dog Night; he remained a member of Three Dog Night until the group broke up in 1977. He continued to perform with other groups, that include the "Ohio Players" and was a member of the short-lived band, "S.S. Fools". Floyd has a bit part as a drummer in the comedy feature, Maailmanlopun turo (1990). He continues to play the drums as a member of the group, "Dog + Katt". Moreover, Sneed is also a successful artist whose paintings have been shown in galleries in both Canada and America, alike.
