Jeremy Hummel (born December 8, 1973) is the former drummer and co-founder of the rock band Breaking Benjamin. Jeremy co-wrote and recorded their debut CD, "Saturate" as well as the platinum selling follow-up, "We Are Not Alone."

In September of 2004, after the recording of We Are Not Alone, Hummel was relieved of his duties in the band.

His lawsuit asks for an undisclosed amount of money. Details have been released stating that the band and Hummel have reached a settlement.
