Irv Kluger (July 9, 1921[1] – February 28, 2006)[2] was an American jazz drummer.
He played less jazz after 1950, working in the pit orchestras of Broadway shows such as Guys and Dolls (1950–53). He returned to play with Artie Shaw again in 1953–54 as a member of the Gramercy Five. In the middle of the 1950s he moved to California and played at the Moulin Rouge in Hollywood as the house drummer.[1] He played with Dave Pell in 1956, and with Benny Goodman and Woody Herman later in life, doing much freelance work through the 1960s and 1970s.[1] As a studio musician he played with Johnny Cash. Kluger never led his own recording session.
