Jerry was a celebrated drummer, having recorded and toured with The Juan MacLean, Holy Ghost!, Maserati, !!! and Turing Machine. Born December 30, 1974 in Marietta, Georgia, he attended the University of Georgia and moved to New York in 1995, quickly becoming a beloved fixture on the city's music scene. When not touring, Jerry worked as a graphic designer for publications like Chunklet and Entertainment Weekly. Juan MacLean describes Jerry as "the absolute best at what he did" and a "supportive and loyal friend."

The Juan MacLean has released a video of the extended version of "Happy House," featuring some of Jerry's best work. Shot at the Double Door in Chicago on June 16 of this year, the song is a crowd and critic favorite. At nearly 20 minutes long, the performance is a testament to Jerry's talent and dedication to his craft. - Video is here
