Description


Gary Chaffee’s career spanning over 50 years has had him traveling and teaching students worldwide, as well as being the Chairman for the percussion department at the Berklee School of Music in Boston. During that time, some of his students were Vinnie Colaiuta, JR Robinson, Steve Smith, Kenwood Dennard, and many others who went on to utilize Gary’s teachings in their own careers.
He has also authored many books explaining and demonstrating his unique ideas, among the most popular being the Patterns series. 
As a performer he has played with such luminaries as Pat Metheny, Jaco Pastorius, Bill Frisell, Kermit Driscoll, Mick Goodrick, and many others, as well as a duo that he formed with fellow percussionist Steve Houghton, known as the Whirly Birds.
Now retired in New England, Gary can enjoy his life celebrating his vast career and contributions.
