Maxwell Sachel "Max" Weinberg (born April 13, 1951) is an American (United States) drummer and television personality, most widely known as the longtime drummer for Bruce Springsteens E Street Band and as the bandleader for Conan OBrien on Late Night with Conan OBrien and The Tonight Show with Conan OBrien.

Weinberg grew up in suburban New Jersey and began drumming at an early age. He attended college planning to be a lawyer but got his big break in music in 1974 when he won an audition to become the drummer for Springsteen. His powerful but controlled playing on albums such as Born to Run and Born in the U.S.A. stabilized the E Street Band sound and Weinberg became a mainstay of Springsteens long concert performances. Springsteen dissolved the band in 1989, and Weinberg spent several years considering a law career and trying the business end of the music industry before deciding he wanted to continue with drumming.

In 1993, Weinberg got the role as bandleader of The Max Weinberg 7 for Late Night with Conan OBrien. Weinbergs drums-driven jump blues sound and his role as a comic foil prospered along with the show, giving him a second career. In 1999, Springsteen reformed the E Street Band for a series of tours and albums, and from then on Weinberg has worked out an arrangement that allows him to play with both OBrien and Springsteen. In 2009, Weinberg moved to the short-lived Tonight Show with Conan OBrien as leader of Max Weinberg and The Tonight Show Band.
