Jason Cooper

Jason Cooper has been the drummer for The Cure since 1995. In 2019, Cure founder Robert Smith shared:

I think with Jason, he’s just a charming bloke. He’s just utterly… erm. What’s the opposite of capricious? I’d say reliable but that seems really boring. He’s constant. He’s just very even-tempered and the perfect drummer. He drums for several hours before we go on stage and he’ll sometimes drum some more when we come off stage. It’s like, ‘We’ve just played for three hours. Why are you still doing this?’ More importantly, he’s just a very genuine individual that’s been the heart of the band for a while now.
