Dirty Little Rabbits Pfaff has been a lifelong friend of Slipknot bandmate
Sid Wilson, who introduced him to
Shawn Crahan in 2007. The two quickly hit it off where they formed a band together called
Dirty Little Rabbits where he was the band's pianist. The band released two
extended play's
Breeding (2007) and
Simon (2009) before releasing their debut and only
eponymous album in 2010, before splitting up in 2012.
Slipknot Following the dismissal of longtime Slipknot percussionist and backup vocalist
Chris Fehn in March 2019 due to him filing a lawsuit against the band, Pfaff was quickly contacted by Crahan while working on his day job about potentially replacing Fehn, to which he accepted. He took over percussion duties, joining the band shortly before the filming of the music video for "
Unsainted", the
lead single off of their sixth studio album
We Are Not Your Kind, released on August 9, 2019. Due to the appearance of his mask resembling a
tortilla, Pfaff was quickly nicknamed "Tortilla Man" by fans and was known primarily by this title until the band finally revealed his identity in March 2022. Initially brought in as a touring member, Pfaff became an official full-time member of the band when the band and himself returned to the studio to record the seventh studio album
The End, So Far. Pfaff sustained an ankle injury while performing on the band's 2022 European Tour. ==Personal life==
