The drummer did not give a reason for his departure after nearly 30 years from the Grammy Award-winning rock group.

Cameron first joined in 1998 as a temporary replacement for Jack Irons, playing on a long tour before making his studio debut with the band on 2000's "Binaural."

After nearly three decades drumming for the rock supergroup, Matt Cameron is leaving Pearl Jam. Cameron, 62, announced the decision with a post to Instagram July 7, thanking his fellow bandmates and fans for "the opportunity of a lifetime" and teasing what comes next.
