Peter Glen Prescott (born October 26, 1957 in Nantucket, Massachusetts, United States) is an American musician from Boston, Massachusetts.

He is best known as the drummer for Mission of Burma.[1] After Burma disbanded in 1983, Prescott remained active in the Boston music scene, forming Volcano Suns[2][3] and later Kustomized,[1] Peer Group,[1] and Minibeast.[4] Since Burma's reformation, beginning with 2004's ONoffON, Prescott has resumed his original duties alongside bandmates Roger Miller and Clint Conley.[5]

Prescott once sat in as a drummer for Big Black on two songs when their drum machine allegedly malfunctioned at a gig at CBGB's during the New Music Seminar in July 1986.
