Timeline

1978

Jesse Margera (born August 28, 1978) is an American musician.

Margera was born on August 28, 1978, and raised in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

He is the older brother of professional skateboarder and TV personality Bam Margera, alongside whom he is considered a founding member of the CKY crew, which worked on the video series of the same name.

He chose to play the drums as he had two uncles who played the instrument, one of whom later worked as a drum technician on a CKY tour.

His "biggest influence" was Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, but as a young musician he also took an interest in jazz drummers such as Elvin Jones.

1991

Margera first played in a band in 1991 or 1992.

One of his first bands was Soalroach, which featured brother Bam and friend Ryan Dunn.

He later formed Foreign Objects with future CKY vocalist and guitarist Deron Miller, whom he originally met at high school.

1995

The band released its debut extended play (EP) The Undiscovered Numbers & Colors in 1995.

Along with bassist Ryan Bruni, the duo later performed under the name Oil, before meeting guitarist Chad I Ginsburg (who was then working as an audio engineer) and changing the name of the band to CKY.

1998

He is best known as the drummer of the rock band CKY, which he co-founded in 1998.

Prior to CKY, Margera performed in the band Foreign Objects with former CKY vocalist and guitarist Deron Miller, and he has since worked with Gnarkill, Viking Skull, The Company Band, Fuckface Unstoppable, and Sovereign Eagle.

Margera has also appeared in the CKY video series and the Viva La Bam and Jackass television series alongside his brother Bam.

2002

Margera was also member of the CKY-related comedy band Gnarkill, formed in 2002, alongside Brandon DiCamillo on vocals, guitarist Rich Vose and brother Bam on keyboards; he performed on both studio albums: 2002's Gnarkill and 2006's GnarKill vs. Unkle Matt and the ShitBirdz.

2003

Speaking about the formation of the band, Margera recalled in a 2003 interview that the main reason he joined CKY was Miller's guitar playing ability, particularly his ability to write "complicated [guitar] riffs that are catchy".

As a member of CKY, Margera performed drums on all five of the band's studio albums, and was credited for contributing to songwriting on Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild.

2005

Each of the bands had toured with one another between 2005 and 2006, after which the group began jamming together and eventually formed into an official band.

With the addition of guitarist Dave Bone and bassist Jason Diamond, the band recorded its debut EP Sign Here, Here and Here with producer Andrew Alekel and released it later in the year.

2006

In November 2006, it was announced that Margera had joined English band Viking Skull, replacing founding member Gordon Morrison.

Speaking about his replacement of Morrison, Margera revealed that he unwittingly contributed to the temporary breakup of the band in 2006, after drinking heavily with the band on tour.

2007

The new lineup released the album Chapter Two in September 2007, which was mixed by CKY guitarist Chad I Ginsburg.

In addition to his work with CKY and Viking Skull, in 2007 Margera formed The Company Band, a supergroup featuring Clutch frontman Neil Fallon and Fireball Ministry frontman James Rota.

2008

Viking Skull and Ginsburg (this time as producer) worked together again for the follow-up album Doom, Gloom, Heartache & Whiskey, recorded and released in 2008 in the US.

The CKY collaboration was extended further, as Joe Frantz and Margera's brother Bam directed the music video for the song "Hair of the Dog".

2009

The band recorded its full-length debut in 2009, and released it in November that year as The Company Band.

2011

The fate of CKY was cast into doubt in 2011, when the band released a video in which each member spoke about their desires for the future of the band; all members but Ginsburg wanted to record solo albums, while the guitarist favored releasing another CKY album.

Miller later claimed that Ginsburg had left the band, while Margera tried to calm the situation by suggesting that Miller had problems with alcohol abuse, and that he needed "support ... not insult[s]".

2012

Another EP, Pros & Cons, was released in 2012.

Margera, along with Ginsburg and bassist Matt "Matty J" Janaitis, later returned as CKY in 2012 with Year Long Disaster frontman Daniel Davies in place of Miller.

2015

This lineup (with Matt Deis in place of Janaitis) later reunited in 2015, following another split with Miller.

Margera has claimed that Davies offered to join the band during a phone call with the drummer, after he had performed on the singer's solo album.

Margera also performs drums in brother Bam's group Fuckface Unstoppable, and has contributed to both studio albums: Stórfréttir Í Reykjavík and Fuckface Unstoppable.

2017

On June 16, 2017, the fifth CKY album titled The Phoenix was released.

Jess and Ginsburg are currently working on a new CKY album.
