Erna developed a fondness for music at the age of three when he began to take an interest in drums. As a little boy, he watched his father play the trumpet at home. Over the years, the singer started playing music and had his big hit in 1993 when he signed his first contract with the band Strip Mind. Shortly after, Erna left the band after splitting up to form the band Godsmack in 1995.

The Godsmack singer was born to his parents Salvatore Erna and Connie Erna as Salvatore Paul Erna Jr. on February 7, 1968 in Lawrence, Massachusetts, USA. His family has a long musical experience. His father was a prominent trumpet player, while his great-uncle was a renowned music composer in Sicily, an autonomous island in the Italian region. Every year, the island honors Sully’s great-uncle by playing his music and hanging his pictures in museums.

The musician has two siblings whose names are Carlo Erna and Maria Erna. While the former is her brother, the latter is her older sister. Both have been very supportive of their brother’s career from day one.

At the age of eleven, Sully decided to stop playing sheet music and rehearsing with his instructors. This is after discovering that it was easier to listen to songs and listen to them than to read and read what was on the sheet. Immediately after he stopped taking his music lessons, Sully began practicing at home, writing songs for several rock bands such as Rush, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith and Motörhead.

As a multi-instrumentalist, he has been featured on several shows and albums. In December 2006, Hit Parader Magazine ranked him 47th on their list of the 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Vocalists of All Time. Apart from the music scene, he has also done an outstanding performance on screen, having appeared in a series of television series, films, documentaries, live band performances and home videos. His most recent work is The Mansion, in which he was cast as Brett Bayton.
