Peter Salisbury (born Peter Anthony Salisbury on 24 September, 1971, in Bath, England) is best known as the powerhouse drummer of The Verve, which he joined as a founding member in 1989.
After the band's demise in 1999, Salisbury played with various bands including Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Salisbury now owns and runs a drum shop, Drummin', in Stockport, England. He currently resides in Buxworth, Derbyshire with his wife Pam, sons Ben and Isaac, and step son Joe. He also plays drums on all of Richard Ashcroft's solo albums.
The Verve reunited in June, 2007 for a new tour and a future album. Pete is believed to be the impetus behind the reunion, because of his close relationship with Richard Ashcroft.
