Lupri grew up in Manhattan, Kansas, and Alberta, Canada. Initially he played the drums, and as a teenager played in blues, rock, and country music bands. In his early 20s he studied music at Mount Royal College, where he heard Gary Burton's recordings and became interested in jazz vibraphone music. Lupri practiced the instrument for the next five years while on the road with rock bands as a drummer. He then enrolled at the Berklee College of Music in Boston to study with Gary Burton himself. Since graduating Lupri's CDs have charted in radio's Top 40 GAVIN, CMJ, and Chart Magazine Canada, and were heard on the TV show “ALIAS.” Lupri was also named as a rising artist on vibraphone in Down Beat critics poll for the 2nd time in 2005.[1]
