Pedro Yanowitz (born Peter Yanowitz on 13 September 1967 in Chicago, Illinois, U.S.) is an American musician. He played drums for The Wallflowers and with Natalie Merchant for numerous years. He is currently the bass player for the band Morningwood. His basses include:
*Ibanez Thunderbird Copy
*Epiphone Flying V Bass
*Two Gibson EB-Os, one red, one blue

He also was Natalie Merchant's longtime boyfriend (1994-2001), and it is rumored that his name switch from "Peter" to "Pedro" was done "in the aftermath of a bad breakup that somehow ended his association with Natalie Merchant."
