Matthew David Cameron (born November 28, 1962 in San Diego, California) is an American musician who serves as the drummer for the American rock band Pearl Jam. After getting his start with the Seattle, Washington-based rock band Skin Yard, he first gained notoriety as the drummer for the grunge rock band Soundgarden, which he joined in 1986 and remained in until the band's break-up in 1997, triggered by creative friction. In 1998, Cameron was invited to drum on Pearl Jam's U.S. Yield Tour. He soon became a permanent member and has remained in the band ever since. Additionally, Cameron has served as the drummer for the side project bands Hater and Wellwater Conspiracy, also acting as the lead singer for the latter.
