I've worked for Grammy winners, TEC, LA Music and IMA winners. With tone, vibe, personality, precision, decisiveness and experience I have the tools to deliver whatever you need on drums or production. From Pop to Country, Americana to Indie, I've done it all. I love developing a sound with an artist and producer.
As a session drummer, I've played on over 1,000 songs, I have a studio with a vintage console, over 30 snare drums (Including Brady, A&F, Noble & Cooley, Battlefield, Vintage Rogers, Ludwig and Slingerland), 40 cymbals (Including Vintage Zildjian, Sabian, Istanbul, UFIP, Dream), and 5 drum kits (Including 50's Gretsch, 60's Pearl, 70's Ludwig and a modern Custom kit). I have a variety of programing software and sample libraries (including NI Maschine, Arturia Spark, I want that sound, Samplephonics and more). I also love using my Roland SPDSX through guitar pedals to create a unique and special character. As a producer and engineer also, I have the details and big picture all in view to get you what you need for each song.

Endorse Jeramy Burchett
Jeremy is a consummate pro. I’ve had the pleasure of using him on multiple sessions, and he always shows up with the right gear, and a knack for coming up with great parts. Equally important, he’s a great hang- always a great attitude and super easy to work with!!
I have had the pleasure of Jeramy producing four of my songs, as well as tracking drums for each of them. He has such a good ear, challenges me to reach my full potential as a songwriter/singer, is an all-around upbeat and genuine individual, and I always know he has my best interest at heart. I highly recommend him!

I worked with Jeramy for the first time on an album for Beth Wood in 2017. He has been my go to ever since. His attention to detail is fantastic. He cares about every little drum tone and goes the extra mile to get the right feel and sound for each song/project. He is also a great producer so naturally brings a lot to the table in terms of achieving the right feel for a song which may involve something intricate or might be one well placed cymbal swell. Highly recommend.

Jeramy is a talented, friendly, hardworking professional drummer and producer. I've worked with/for him for several years and consider him to be a highly skilled session/live drummer, producer, engineer. He's been a great asset to every project I've worked with him on! Highly recommended!
Jeremy is a pro. He's easy to work with, gets excited with you for your projects, and his playing/output are top notch. We've done in-person and virtual sessions, and both have been amazing.
Long time friend, and performance partner, Jeramy is a professional at everything he does. I would highly recommend him for any project that you may have now, or want to start in the future.

First and foremost Jeramy is a good human-being. Every time I have recorded him in the studio, he has crushed it. Not only in his playing but in his attitude and approach. Have you ever recorded a session player and had them be snarky about ideas thrown around? I have. I don’t like it. You don’t get that from Jeramy, he is kind, gracious, and a fantastic musician. He is a solid choice in every way. Hire him, you won’t be disappointed.
Jeramy is one of the most talented and trustworthy artists out there. You don’t come by such talent so often, and when he plays the drums it’s like a breath of fresh air.
Jeramy is top notch in every way... He understands the unique vibes of all styles of music and really studies the ingredients of what go into a style to create that vibe. He’s a great all around instrumentalist and always delivers beyond measure in a timely fashion. You can’t go wrong working with Jeramy! :)

Jeramy Burchett is only a phenomenal drummer on the live stage, but equally as good in the studio. I’ve been working with him almost a decade. He has produced most of my work. He is so easy to work with. Strives to get exactly what the artist is wanting while incorporating his own ideas. Which have always been a huge benefit to the song.
Jeramy has done tons of sessions for and he always crushes it!! Not only an incredible musician but he has such a great ear for tones and he's got an arsenal of drums and gear for any style. He can always get the tones and vibe I'm looking for. His talent as a producer, engineer and overall music maker only make drum sessions easier and the tracks basically finished and ready to drop in the session. I highly recomend Jeramy!
Jeramy Burchett has been an incredible asset to my music making, recording, production and my live band. He is currently music directing my band. He helps me with my violin affects. He is a super solid drummer. He has incredible work ethic. He has the best attitude. He is a big vision thinker and big picture planner. He is a leader and a total team player. I am VERY thankful to have his expertise and support in all of my music making.

- COVID 19 Inspired songMay 05, 2020
I just had the privilege of tracking on a beautiful song by artist Tyler Clarensau. His song was written in response to his daughters worry about what is happening in the world right now during this pandemic. He wisely and artistically reminded the listener "It won't always be this way".
