JAYJAY DRUMS

Gigi Perez

Starting my musical journey playing Jazz in the South of France in 2004. My hometown hosts a major Jazz festival every year and I was lucky enough to be surrounded by incredible international musicians.

Studied Jazz and Drums at the prestigious Conservatory of Toulouse for years and moved to the UK after graduating in 2014, hungry for new sounds and pop music.

I started touring and drumming for many signed artists such as Ebony Bones, Rose Gray, Tom Tripp, Mega, Dawn Richards, Liv Dawson and many more. I was lucky enough to play incredible venues such as Royal Albert Hall, O2 Arena London, and perform at all major festivals in the UK and EU ( Glastonbury, Reading, Rock en Seine, Ziget). I also recorded and filmed on TV/Radio shows such as Radio 1, 2, BBC introducing, Mola Tv and recorded at Abbey Road and Maida Vaile studios. My work led me into MDing, and I was able to build and put together Live Shows for various Major Signed artists.

Relocated to Los Angeles in 2024, I am currently on tour with Island Records artist Gigi Perez Performed live shows and Tiny Desk with Sony Music Artist Audrey Nuna.

  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    Constantly inspired by the musicians I meet and play with wherever I live, I am passionate about the different cultures and sounds every city has to offer ! Been able to settle down in various parts of the world has had an immense impact on my playing.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Finding your own sound and path on the drums is essential, whatever environment you are in. 
Learning from people around us is important, but listening to what makes you vibrate is essential.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    I absolutely love the K custom and Dark Thin Series. They work in all situations, bringing crispy and precise sound without overtaking the mix.
