Cameron, 62, confirmed the news alongside the group as part of a pair of statements released together on their social media pages on Monday 7th July.
Cameron’s message read: “After 27 fantastic years, I have taken my final steps down the drum riser for the mighty Pearl Jam.
“I am forever grateful to the crew, staff and fans the world over. It’s been an incredible journey. More to follow. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.”
“He has propelled the last 27 years of Pearl Jam live shows and studio recordings. It was a deeply important chapter for our group and we wish him well always.
Pearl Jam was first formed in 1990 as part of the Seattle grunge scene – a time that spawned bands including Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Mudhoney and Alice in Chains.
Cameron performed with Soundgarden from 1986 to 1997, and joined Pearl Jam a year later.
Originally meant as a temporary replacement for the band, he soon became a permanent fixture and their longest-standing drummer.
Both Soundgarden and Pearl Jam have been recognised for their influence on rock music, earning places in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
