JEROME JENNINGS
Genres: Hard Bop, Classic Fusion • United States

Drummer, Jerome Jennings, keeps his words simple, but his sound is impactful. Ask anyone who has ever watched him play, he owns his music. There are no wasted beats, or breaks. Every sound, every moment of silence, has a purpose. You cannot hear him and not feel the intensity behind his playing. The rhythm talks to you and the conversation between sound and emotion has always been the best recipe for good music, with Jennings you get both.
