Jeff Thacher Biography

Jeff Thacher is one of the most popular and richest Musician who was born on December 23, 1967 in Noank, Connecticut, United States.

As the mid-1990s progressed, the terms “organic” and “imitative” began to be used to describe contrasting a cappella vocal percussion styles, with Thacher as the most prominent progenitor of the “organic” approach, combining blatantly literal replication of drums with sounds that didn’t seek to duplicate, but rather fill the role of a drum or percussive instrument. Thacher was also the first vocal percussionist to employ a throat microphone (aka “throat mic”) using electronic guitar pickups adhered to the larynx area of the throat (see piezoelectric sensor). The technique allowed intentional throat grunting sounds to be heard more effectively in live shows and on recordings (1997). He became the first such artist to be professionally endorsed by a guitar pickup company (Seymour Duncan, from 1998 to present, now D-TAR).

Vocal percussion, as a full-time occupation amidst a band or ensemble, was a fairly new idea in 1991, and Thacher performed as a tenor in Five O’Clock Shadow when not mouth-drumming. At that time, Rockapella was halfway through their stint on the children’s television geography gameshow Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego? on PBS(1991–1996) and had created several albums for the Japan-only record label For Life Records, as well as a soundtrack album for the Carmen Sandiego show. These albums had utilized individual computer- sequenced samples of mouth noises for their drum tracks. Rockapella sought to translate this approach organically to their live shows via a human performer, and after a search, Thacher got the job.
