Biography
Figueiredo began playing drums at the age of ten, when his grandfather bought him a drum kit. He studied with jazz drummer Bob Gullotti "The Fringe" and Mike Mangini, who collectively exposed him to many different approaches to drumming.
In November 2007, Figueiredo joined the reuniting band Extreme including original members Gary Cherone, Pat Badger and Nuno Bettencourt, with whom Figueiredo performed in both Satellite Party and DramaGods (previously known as Population 1). He replaced mentor Mike Mangini, who took over drum duties from Extreme's original drummer, Paul Geary, from 1994 to 1996.
