Jerry Beller (drums/vocals) was born into a musical family; his father, Alex Beller, was a highly regarded session player with a resume that reads like a who’s who of musical giants encompassing close to five decades of popular music.

Growing up in Hollywood, California, Jerry rubbed elbows with the likes of Sonny and Cher and Frank Sinatra. At the tender age of three, Jerry began playing the drums after seeing The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Jerry’s love of music (and tennis – he was a semi-pro player and coach) continued to grow as he discovered such bands as Cream, Mountain, and The Jimi Hendrix Experience. Later, progressive rock bands like Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Gentle Giant and Yes propelled Jerry to push his skills as a drummer to ever-higher levels.

Jerry has played with many pop and progressive rock bands over the years, enjoying success with acts such as Multiview and Graven Image, and lending his skills to artists Ryo Okumoto (Spock’s Beard), Graham Bonnett, and Ian Ashley Hersey. Jerry played alongside bassist/vocalist Kerry Chicoine in Ryo Okumoto’ Code Red and later went on to form Emerson, Lake and Palmer tribute act Endless Enigma with Kerry and keyboardist Phillip Wolfe (W.A.S.P., Glass Wolfe).

Jerry resides in the San Fernando Valley with his family and plays DW Custom Drums, Zilldjian Cymbals, Remo drum heads and Vic Firth sticks.
