Whether he is recording or performing with his trio, Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown, the Clayton Brothers or co-leading the Clayton/Hamilton Jazz Orchestra, drummer Jeff Hamilton’s imprint on the sound is indelible. In praising the Clayton/Hamilton Jazz Orchestra, David Badham said much of the success “is undoubtedly due to Jeff Hamilton, a most driving and technically accomplished drummer." Jeff has performed with the very top names in the world of jazz and the Clayton/Hamilton Jazz Orchestra is universally heralded as one of the top big bands of all time and provides backup for Dianna Krall.
