John Everett Otto (born March 22, 1977) is an American musician best known as the drummer and a founding member of the nu metal band Limp Bizkit.

[1] Modern Drummer reported that Otto's playing is "grounded in metal, jazz, and hip-hop [and that his] fireball rhythms are the grease that makes the Bizkit cook.

"[2] Otto studied jazz drumming at the Douglas Anderson School of the Arts and played in local avant-garde bands before joining Limp Bizkit, which was being formed by Fred Durst and Sam Rivers.

Otto later worked with San Jose alternative metal act Fishnoise on their debut EP "Four Dollar Bill, Y'all".
