Jack Perry has been a working drummer, composer, recording artist, and educator in Southern California for over 10 years.

He earned a bachelor’s degree in jazz studies from UC Irvine in 2016. During his last two years of college, Jack became the regular drummer for Ray Goren & the Soul Fixers, touring the US and working with rock royalty like Eddie Kramer (Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles) and Robby Krieger (The Doors).

After graduating, Jack honed his craft as a recording engineer and producer. His drumming, production knowledge, and creative mindset have made him a sought-after collaborator for artists across genres. He also releases music with his personal project, LEAF LEAF, which he produces and performs on.

As an educator, Jack has worked in a variety of formats. From 2018 to 2026, he taught jazz, marching, and concert percussion for Claremont Unified School District. He has also led masterclasses and taught private students, some of whom have studied with him for years.

In 2027, Jack hits the road with Buttonmasher, bringing his distinctive drumming to stages across the US and overseas. When he’s home, catch him playing live around SoCal most weekends with some of the region’s top musicians.
