Ringo Starr

As the legendary drummer of The Beatles, Sir Ringo Starr has spent a lifetime spreading messages of peace, love, and unity. He actively encourages artists from all genres and generations to stand together in support of The Non-Violence Project, aiming to stop violence affecting young people.

The Knotted Gun statue was originally created by Swedish artist Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd as a tribute to John Lennon. Starr designed his own interpretation of the sculpture, titled Drums for Peace, adding his artistic touch to this global symbol of non-violence.

In 2011, Starr joined The Non-Violence Project at the exclusive unveiling of his original Knotted Gun-sculpture in London’s Gibson Guitar Studio, where he called on musicians worldwide to unite for peace. His message remains as strong as ever: “I am doing the best I can, how about you?”
