Roy Owen Haynes (March 13, 1925 – November 12, 2024) was an American jazz drummer. In the 1950s he was given the nickname "Snap Crackle" for his distinctive snare drum sound and musical vocabulary. He was among the most recorded drummers in jazz. In a career spanning over eight decades, he played swing, bebop, jazz fusion, and avant-garde jazz. He is considered to have been a pioneer of jazz drumming.
Haynes led bands, including the Hip Ensemble. His albums Fountain of Youth and Whereas were nominated for a Grammy Award.[1][2] He was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1999.[3]
