Testimonials
“A budding master in the drumming world. He works like a dog and learns. He’s real. I have worked with some of the best drummers on the planet, and man, he’s right up there.”
-Ted Nugent
"I have known Jason since he was a wee young lad. He would come to KISS and/or Alice Cooper shows many times and was always keen to watch, learn and ask questions. He had that focus from his youth and it is no wonder he has become the player he is today. Very well spoken, and that translates into his undeniable drumming skills"

"During my professional life as a musician/drummer i have been very fortunate to have played with some very talented and legendary musicians.... Over the last 10 years, i have had the privilege of watching Jason Hartless Jr. Grow from a child prodigy to a brilliant man drummer. He is not only a genuine bright and personable young musician ....He is a "rock solid kid" obsessed with learning more and more each day...Jason's drumming continues to get better each and every day because he not only plays with his quick hands and his creative mind, he most of all ...Plays with his heart ( a heart of gold )....God bless Jason because "he is drumming" and may i say " he is drums"

"Jason Hartless is one of the most gifted drummers I have come across in my 25+ years in the entertainment business. I had the pleasure of working very closely with him on the road during Motley Crue's "Crue Fest 2" tour during the summer of 2009. During those two months I, as well as everyone on the crew, was continually impressed by a young man who not only rocked hard with practically perfect timing and creative rhythm on every show, but displayed a maturity, discipline and dedication way beyond his years. Every night of this grueling tour he brought his A-game with his band mates and never once was he late for a sound check or performance or fail to deliver a great set.
On top of all that, his friendly, down-to-earth personality and constant curiosity endeared him to us and we all grew to love him very much. It will be my pleasure to work with Jason again any time in the future and I recommend him highly to any band looking for a talented drummer and solid professional."

“Jason is a young up & coming drummer who has a very bright future! He's already accomplished more than many twice his age and it will only get better from here as more experience comes with age. I find him to be very professional both on stage and off which is VERY important in the music business. His DVD was excellent and his playing is impressive! As a matter of fact, I've just gotten an email from someone looking for a drummer and I will send Jason's info knowing if the situation is right, he'll get the job done!”
-Billy Amendola
"I had the privilege of touring with Jason in the summer 2009 on the 'Cruefest 2 Tour.' Not only was I blown away by his incredible musicianship and showmanship on stage, I was equally impressed by his maturity and knowledge of his craft. Any band would be lucky to have Jason as their drummer. "
