Bulsara learned how to play the piano when he was a kid. At 12 years old, he formed a band called The Hectics which covered many rock and roll songs from artists like Little Richard. However, before he focused on music, Bulsara earned a diploma at Ealing Art College.

He earned his diploma in Art and Graphic Design. His post-secondary education proved to be worthwhile in the long run. His diploma actually helped him come up with some awesome designs for his future band, which didn’t form until 1970.
