Jonathan Moffett (2018)

Jonathan Phillip „Sugarfoot“ Moffett (* 17. November 1954 in New Orleans) ist ein US-amerikanischer Schlagzeuger. Bekannt wurde er als Schlagzeuger von Michael Jackson, für den er von 1979 bis 2009 insgesamt rund 30 Jahre lang tätig war. Seine Pedal-Technik brachte ihm den Spitznamen Sugarfoot ein.

Moffett spielt seit seiner Kindheit Schlagzeug. Nach einem Umzug von New Orleans nach Los Angeles wurde er in den 1980er Jahren Tourdrummer bei Acts wie Patti Austin, Lionel Richie, The Jackson Five, Michael Jackson, Elton John und Madonna. Im Studio spielte er für Peter Cetera und Julian Lennon. 2009 ist er in dem Film This Is It als Drummer bei Michael Jacksons nicht mehr realisierter Abschiedstournee zu sehen.
