Meinl Cymbals - Jerry Roe vs. Navene Koperweis Ep. 2

We asked Meinl Cymbals artist Navene Koperweis to write four metal tracks for Meinl Cymbals artist Jerry Roe. Jerry is one of the absolute top call session drummers in Nashville, and so hearing a song for the first time and having to track drums to it quickly and convincingly, using the Nashville Number System as his guide is what he does every day. This year, Jerry was voted the Studio Drummer of the Year by the Academy of Country Music. He has been on more country albums than you can count, including Luke Combs, Hardy, Morgan Wallen, and many, many more. Jerry also records and tours with his wife Buick Audra in a very heavy post-metal band called Friendship Commanders and has always been a fan of heavy music. So needless to say, he was more than willing to take on this particular project and let us document it. Navene Koperweis is one of the most talented musicians in metal music today. He came to prominence in a bands such as Animosity and Animals As Leaders. Today Navene is the musical mastermind behind Entheos, the band he’s in with his wife Chaney Crabb. Not only does Navene play the drums for Entheos on record and on tour, but he writes and records all of the guitar and bass for the band. So here is the second of a number of videos from this session. Enjoy!
