Gabe Jacobs

Session/Live/Remote Drummer

Gabe Jacobs on SoundBetter

Experienced live and session drummer with an ability to play a wide variety of genres. I have played with and produced songs for artists such as Ben Lee, Johanna Samuels, Lenka, and Nicole Lawrence.

I am a Los Angeles based drummer with a passion for playing and connecting with artists all across the globe. I love traveling and have experience playing both locally in Los Angeles, as well as the east coast and pacific northwest. Aside from being available as a live drummer, I am a seasoned session musician and have had the privilege of tracking drums at some of LA's most beautiful and historic studios. I always give my absolute full attention and gratitude when playing on someone else's track because I believe every song deserves the opportunity to have the best treatment possible. I love being a part of the studio process and catering to the desires of the songwriter, while also being able to impart my personal style onto the track. As a live player, I still carry that same joy from the studio to the stage. Translating a beloved song from a recording into a powerful, emotional, or energetic performance in front of an audience is an experience I take pride in. Music is more than a passion for me; it's a way of life.
