Travis Landon Barker (born November 14, 1975) is a drummer and record producer, best-known as the drummer for the band Music/Blink182 and for his many, many collaborations with other artists (usually with a "featuring" credit), both as a drummer and producer. Initially a member of Music/TheAquabats before joining Blink as a replacement for Scott Raynor, Barker began working outside of PopPunk in the mid-2000s following the band's hiatus, having already dipped his toes into the genre as part of the RapRock band The Transplants, when he formed the rock/hip-hop supergroup Expensive Taste with Paul Wall and Skinhead Rob and collaborated with the likes of Music/TheBlackEyedPeas, [[{{Music/UGK}} Bun B]] and {{Music/TI}}. In the late 2000s, he began collaborating with DJ AM for an unusual group called TRV$DJAM, in which he played drums over AM's DJ sets, and found success in the late 2000s on {{Website/YouTube}}, where he began posting videos of himself drumming over popular songs at the time including Music/FloRida's "Low", {{Music/Rihanna}}'s "Umbrella" and Music/SouljaBoy's "Crank That (Soulja Boy)".

On September 19, 2008, however, things changed - Barker, DJ AM and their entourage were on a private jet back to California after a concert in South Carolina which crashed during takeoff, [[CelebritySurvivor killing everyone on board apart from the two musicians]], including Barker's assistant Chris Baker and his security guard Che Still. Barker spent more than three months in hospitals and burn centers, undergoing 16 surgeries, blood transfusions that lasted 4–8 hours and numerous skin grafts, but remarkably, managed to recover enough to continue recording music before the end of the year. The crash left Barker with PTSD and a fear of flying, and he didn't take another plane for 13 years.

In 2011, Barker released his debut solo album, ''Give The Drummer Some'', featuring a who's who of HipHop including Music/LilWayne, Music/SnoopDogg, Music/RickRoss, Music/PharrellWilliams, Music/BustaRhymes, Music/LilJon, [[Music/WuTangClan RZA, Raekwon]], Music/TechN9ne, Music/{{The Game|Rapper}} and Music/LupeFiasco. In 2012, he produced ''Psycho White'', a collaborative EP with Yelawolf, and in 2016, he released ''Rawther'', a collaborative EP with Asher Roth and Nottz. In the late 2010s, this prolific collaborative tendency ramped up significantly - Barker began working with various Emo Rap artists, including Music/LilPeep, {{Music/XXXTENTACION}} and Music/LilNasX, and releasing collaborative albums with rap group $UICIDEBOY$, LA rapper 03 Greedo and [[RapRock rap-rocker]] Nothing.Nowhere.
