Kerry Jacobson

Kerry Samuel Jacobson (born 19 April 1954) is a New Zealand musician, educator, ARIA hall of fame inductee and former drummer of rock band Dragon.

He continues to write and play with Ian Moss and is the drummer for Mondo Rock and his own band The Filthy Animals.

In 1982 Dragon reformed with its original and most notable line-up, including Jacobson, as they needed to pay off some outstanding debts which had accumulated after their breakup in 1979.

Feeling exhausted, Jacobson left the band in 1983, after recording the single Rain, to become a session musician.

He was then replaced by Terry Chambers from UK band XTC and later Doane Perry from Jethro Tull.
