Jake Hanna (b. April 4, 1931, Boston) is an American jazz drummer.

Hanna first played locally in his home town of Boston, and was the house drummer at Storyville for a number of years in the 1950s and 1960s. He played with Toshiko Akiyoshi (1957), Maynard Ferguson (1958), Marian McPartland (1959-61), and Woody Herman's Orchestra (1962-64). He did extensive work as a studio musician both in and out of jazz, including time as the drummer for the "Merv Griffin Show" big band (1964-75). He recorded several albums with Carl Fontana for Concord Jazz in the mid-1970s, and also played in Supersax. Later in his career he did much work as a sideman for Concord.
