Career

What Is This? and Red Hot Chili Peppers (1980-1988)

Jack was a founding member of, and the original drummer for, the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Jack attended Fairfax High School in Los Angeles, California alongside Anthony Kiedis, Michael "Flea" Balzary, Hillel Slovak, and Alain Johannes. As teenagers Irons and Alain Johannes formed the band Anthym with Michael Balzary (Flea) and Hillel Slovak; this band was soon to be renamed What Is This?. Soon thereafter Flea formed The Red Hot Chili Peppers with Anthony Kiedis, Slovak and Irons. Flea left What Is This? at this time, but Slovak and Irons remained on board and the band released the EP Squeezed. After the recording of the self-titled second What Is This? album, Slovak and Irons left to concentrate full-time on the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Irons can be heard playing drums on the band's third album The Uplift Mofo Party Plan (1987), as well as on their cover of "Fire" (originally penned by Jimi Hendrix and first released on the Chili Peppers' The Abbey Road EP). When childhood friend and bandmate, Hillel Slovak died of a heroin overdose on June 25, 1988, Irons left the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

After Irons left the Red Hot Chili Peppers he teamed up with Johannes and Shneider in 1990 to form Eleven. With Eleven, Irons recorded the albums Awake In A Dream (1991) and Eleven (1993). Midway through the recording of Eleven's third album, Thunk (1995), Irons departed to drum with Pearl Jam, and Matt Cameron played drums on the album's remaining four tracks.

Pearl Jam (1994-1998)

Jack Irons was asked to join Mookie Blaylock, the band that would become Pearl Jam in 1990, when they were first forming and still looking for a singer. Although he didn't join the band at that time because he was committed to his own band, Eleven, he did pass on a cassette of their work to a singer named Eddie Vedder, a local musician in San Diego at the time, with whom Irons had formed a friendship. Vedder joined the band and they recorded their debut album Ten, and Irons had no more to do with the project for the time being. Irons became the official drummer for the band in late 1994 following the departure of Dave Abbruzzese. He drummed on the Pearl Jam/Neil Young collaboration Mirror Ball (1995) and on the subsequent Pearl Jam records No Code (1996) and Yield (1998). He toured with the band up until his semi-retirement in 1998 prior to the US Yield Tour. He brought a unique drumming style to the band, particularly in the way he played his fills and using a trash can lid as a cymbal.[2] Irons co-wrote the music for the No Code songs "Who You Are", "In My Tree", and "I'm Open". He also wrote and sang on the Pearl Jam songs "" (from Yield) and "Whale Song" (which was on their collection of B-sides entitled Lost Dogs).
