To pull off that performance in just one take is seriously impressive. She killed it! ⚡ You can play along with this and many other Rage Against The Machine songs inside Drumeo - Click on the link to get started: www.drumeo.com/trial.
When are you getting Emma Taylor from Love to learn drums on, make *IT HAPPEN*
What's the point of this, if you choose songs where the drum parts are so obvious?
May be the second best one take behind Chad’s….
@blechtic it's not about trying to stump the drummers.. its just a good time and fun to watch. Why make it more than that?
@@zerochill1403 If the beat is obvious, it leaves less room for the drummer's interpretation, which should be the whole point, right? It's about giving room to make different choices.
She hits hard and hit the snare like it owed her rent money. Great take. Glad this series continues.
Lol what kind of landlords do you know
this "HiT thOSe DruMs LikE thEy OwE HeR MonEy" is getting so tired. we need to stop saying this.
Especially when it was on guitar hero but she did made mistakes and there no reason to lie that's why they try rd it's a game
I thought that she was angrier at the high hat, she beat that thing like a rented mule. Great stuff!
She hits those drums like Ike hit Tina
DRUMEO
PLEASE
NEVER STOP
THIS SERIES
I’m not even a drummer and I love it
@@chrisd4813 What? You enjoy watching people do something that you yourself don't do? That's absurd
@@user-tt4jz3tm6t me too,i play Guitar but still loving this series.
MOAR PLZ!
Agreed.
"I'm not the type of drummer who can just hear a song and make a drum part" the. Proceeds to absolutely nail it in one take after 1 listen
Imagine believing she has never heard this song
@@TheECKush a musician has definitely heard this song
@@TheECKush
She is a pop rock drummer, there is a good chance she has never heard it or has never actively listened to it.
There are plenty of music generalists and music specialists. I play bass and I've played with people who are generalists and I've played with people who are in their 40s and have never heard "Come As You Are" but they have been musicians for 25 years.
I've never heard of Jess, but as a drummer, nothing but respect. She heard the track only once, took no notes and went for it. That takes an enormous amount of confidence and she killed it. She's very talented. I'm a fan now.
Same here dude
This is probably my favourite one in this series so far... Blows my mind, and I keep coming back for a listen of that one take... They need to bring her back..
She's definitely old enough to know who Rage Against the Machine are lol. Why do they pretend to not know or have heard of, Bulls On Parade. It's got to be an act lol my 13 year old Nephew loves RATM, and unfortunately these teens can only see RUclips footage of how awesome that time was where every seeing you listen to on the radio, and every artist and their music like deftones, disturbed, No Doubt Exedra was. But this chick looks old enough to know who this band is LOL
Jess looks like she's in her thirties, and she would definitely know who Rage Against the Machine are. I just love how they think they're too young to know who this very popular, and Brilliant band still is in today's tragic slim pickings of fabulous and talented artists into days crazy world.The 90's... oh where do we start with the best decade of rock groups like Korn, Deftones, Marilyn manson ECT! Ever lol. But she knows😅
Well Jess has either been hiding underneath a rock, or living on Mars for the past three decades if she's never heard of RATM lol especially one the most played songs ever Bulls On Parade lol. Unless you are 5 years old then you know who this group is. I don't buy anything she saying lol.
Next in the series: Dave Grohl hears Nirvana for the first time
This deserves top comment
Top comment… by a mile!
😂😂😂
Yeah, this is absolute click bait bullsh&#. No way she's never heard of RATM.
😂
Jess talking: sweet baby lamb
Jess drumming: absolute beast
Amazing job!!
exactly....i got scary
Very easy on the eyes.
@@lw3918 I wasn’t commenting on her physical appearance.
@@jeanjean3 You should have.
@@lw3918 nope, it would be an unsolicited opinion and really off topic here.
It always surprises me how much work the cymbals do, and you don't notice until you hear the drumless track.
She 100% did that justice. That was an inspired take on a classic. Well done!
Boom. Couldn't of said it any better.
@@xbox360RobCouldn't have.
She was not listening to this for the first time.
@@Borodin410🥴
@@xbox360Rob What was edited? 😅
i love how aggressively she plays the drums, especially for a song like this. She killed it. Amazing.
on re-watch, the beginning were drums drop off the original, I LOVE what she played thru that part
as tom morello says, the chords are "fuck. you." playing with aggressiveness is the only way to play ratm
Yeah she brought a lot to the song. Gotta go aggressive for RATM songs.
Well this 30 year old women can play really well because she knows who RATM are lol unless she's been living in Mars or underneath a rock for 30 plus years. Unless you're 5 years old you know Bulls on Parade lol. Got to love how she's acting so naive, and saying, " I've never heard of Rage" lol. Yes she the hell u have!! Unless her mom kept her in a basement and she just escaped and got on RUclips and discovered the popular, electrifying group that has you wanting to start crowd surfing. If she doesn't know who rage is, then she definitely doesn't know what Mosh Pit is or crowd surfing, lol. This woman has definitely been put away or a kidnapped victim if she has not heard of this group. Come on!! I don't believe how ridiculous this act is lol
I have no idea how Drumeo ended up in my feed, but I'm so glad! It started with Chad Smith, and has been a blast getting these. I am not a musician, so I am in awe of each person's technical variability, but the creativity is everything in this series. Individual creativity for professionals is fun to watch. Exceptional video!!
Have you seen the one with Luke Combs drummer? They gave him Gojira, which is just plain rude, lol. He did a respectable job for sure, but Mario is hard to keep up with even if you know his stuff, let alone if you're used to playing pop country
As a drummer the reason I love this series is because it shows what really gets you work and that’s playing for the song and not yourself.
Well said! She is all about the music, to the exclusion of even herself.
for a drummer that's nervous about playing metal, she hits that cymbal like it stole her grandma's purse.
😂😂😂😂😂
Oh my god, that's the funniest expression ever!
I love this comment
She's getting off on the excuse to knock f**k out of 'em 😉
Her biggest influences are Travis Barker and Dave Grohl, two of the most aggressive drummers there are lol probably just down playing herself.
Her perfomance is great. And it's also always humbling when these drummers say "never heard this song before", songs that Rock fans would say are common knowledge, just shows that we all live in our own little bubbles.
i met this dude that had never listened to smells like teen spirit before, dude listened exclusively to edm and rap and some people just aren't eclectic at all
I can’t believe she never heard it. That’s bullshit. And her performance looks too close from the original. She just wanted to size the opportunity to be comfortable
@@Ottoni174 Theres a video of this harp player chick who's never heard that, and she jams along and plays it on harp so fast its crazy
Everyone has gaps in their lifetime music listening experience, even professional musicians. There's just so much iconic stuff out there that it's inevitable you'll miss at least some of it.
Or maybe it's just the age difference? :) She was a child when this came out. I'm 50 and I wouldn't be surprised if I got caught not knowing about some particular song which was released when I was a kid :)
YO SHE FUCKING KILLED IT.
Keep this format going, please. It is one of my favorite things on youtube rn
Hi Jess Bowen. I heard that song billions times. You never heared it before. And you said you are not the type of person that can hear a song and play it in one take. This is a sentence that you never can tell anymore. Because You are that kind of person. Thank you very much for that.
This literally filled me with tears of joy when she started playing. She was simply enjoying herself while playing the song without any prior knowledge of the drumming, and witnessing her improvise on the drums brought me immense happiness. 🥲❤
It’s crazy to me how timid she was while she was talking, and how confident she was while playing
I'm a drummer, I'm quiet and reserved. Drums... I go nuts. It's a form of expression that feels better than any drug.
because she actually knows the song, and she's playing it off like she doesnt lolol. stop being naive
As a drummer. She's just in the groove. I wouldn't be surprised if she really knew the song but almost anyone who is doing something they truly love will do it with confidence.
@@ronnydee34 Bruh you really going out of your way to find every single comment like this and talk shit about her 😅 What are you, her ex?
@@jarule275 Same. Another example is Neil Peart.
Another cool thing you realise about RATM is that the drums have so much presence and groove without being overly complicated or showy. Brad Wilks is a powerhouse of understated rock drumming that was perfect for the RATM sound.
That's why I thought he was a good replacement for Sabbath. Bill Ward was much more groove-oriented than people realize.
Yep. SO. MUCH. GROOVE.
Brad is a master of understatement. Hard hitting and perfect groove and sync with the bass (really give it the hip hop vibe it deserves).
well said!
A perfect example of less is more.
Damn! Much respect to this artist. She is insane. Great take
That kit sounds so good. She was so on-point with that first take - totally nailed the feel of the song and interpreted extremely well. Yeah the part is more straight forward than what she put down but I think it could have been a solid representation of what that song might have been like if it were recording in the last few years. Anyways, loved it - these segments are why I follow Drumeo.
As a bassist I seriously appreciate the simplicity at the root of her playing and her accents are SO GOOD and she hits SO HARD. Love it.
Don't cream
I really enjoyed the bit around 5:15 when she starts doing the fast drum rolls while Zach is singing about libraries and the mind cemetery. That's just a really funky bit right there that always makes me smile. 😄
Agreed. People try to do too much. Thats why Rage was so good in the first place, that Rythym section was tight and didnt go crazy.
I mean what she's doing is far more complex than what Brad Wilk did
As a super saiyan my comment is inherently more valid than if I weren't.
“I’m sorry I didn’t do it justice”
IMO you DEFINITELY did it justice. That song deserves that energy. There are times it could have breathed a little more but I loved it the whole way through and it’s that energy.
Why do women always tend to apologize…. She could have been like yea, yup, that’s me. I’m cool like that.
@@esthershin9690 Women? I think any drummer with respect for any other band would say sorry or act humble lol
@@esthershin9690 If you've watched any other of these videos you wouldn't be saying women, you'd be saying drummers. They all do this.
It's not just women, it's any good musician in general because you can't be super good unless you're always analyzing and improving. At least that's what I've always felt about playing and many interviews of professional musicians you hear that. Not many pros would ever say 'Boy, I sure am the cats ass'.
Because that’s not how professionals act, women or not.
Having never heard of Jess before I have to say she was the perfect person for you to choose to play this song as she just has so much energy and hits the drums so hard which is a perfect match for rage songs please never stop making these videos
I've watched this video at least once a week since it dropped. Such a badass!
I love how the crew, even after years of playing drums, still aren't immune to air drumming to that rolling drum part xD EVERYONE does that. it's just so atavistic and primal.
It's like being at a Rush concert... 😂
I'm sure there's a lot of the listeners that are also air drumming 😂 me included!
reminds me of how my drum line friends would listen to music when hanging out!
Yes, any stupid person who doesn't know how to listen to music without attracting the attention of others (because playing air drums doesn't show anyone that you know how to play music) does that.
@@eduardoperalta2890eh?
Holy Jesus she's good. She drums with finesse and power and she hits them like she means it. As a bass player I'd be stoked if there were more drummers that played like she does
I've just watched this... Wow! I kinda wish this is how the song is drummed. She's absolutely awesome!
As a bassist... I can only fully agree with you!! :-)
These videos are sooo much fun to watch, I'm not even a drummer and I always love these.
Pure energy and pure joy, a true master at her craft ! RESPECT !
I'm always blown away by how modest these drummers sound coming in and then they kill it!
Cos its scripted af
In my experience, most people who are good at stuff underestimate how good they are.
That's my favorite part, they all do great but always go humble about it.
You only become good by holding yourself to the highest standard. Every good musician thinks they're shit compared to who they grew up listening to
@@headlesschicken111 bold of you to assume drummers can act, you ever see musicians in movies? they suck. unless its jack black or alice cooper
As a female drummer I just gotta say that I've noticed whenever women do these types of vids they're so apologetic and there's no reason to be! You absolutely killed it and no one person can ever know every single song, even the iconic ones. Your performance just makes me want to practice until I can play like you. Thank you for taking a chance and giving it a go!
Nobody cares about your gender if you're dope. She's got great feel and is applauded in the comments for it. Her demeanor is the result of being humble and guilt from lying about never hearing this song before. You can become a perfectionist about your craft too someday so more practicing and less girl power mindset
@@MC_Hammerpants noo its a thing. women do apologize more than men. also i never heard this song until today
@@MC_Hammerpants For someone that doesn't care about gender you sure do talk about it a lot. Thanks for being the perfect example of who not to be as a commenter on these vids.
I totally agree with you! I thought it was a bit sad how much she felt "sorry for not doing a good job" when she truly killed it!
@@NavalsLounge yeah I can't remember her name but there was another Latina pop drummer that did the same thing in one of these vids! She was so down on herself and criticizing her own take on a song she'd never heard before when she truly killed it! Sad to see but not surprising considering the backlash we tend to get from other drummers. It's like they're just waiting to pounce when we fuck up one stroke when they'd never do that to their favorite male drummers.
She is so humble. Love this. She hits hard and having fun.
been a fan of jess since the earliest days of summer set. amazing to see her being given her flowers by such nice people in this comment section. i'm a sap, i know, but it brought me to tears reading all the good positive vibes sent her way. LOVE YOU JESS. keep being amazing. you deserve every opportunity coming your way
I'm not a drummer. And I had no idea who Jess Bowen is. But now I could spend the entire day watching her do her thing. Bravo.
Same on all counts! She freaking crushed it!!!
@@ericvinson4628 Literally. I was in a different tab and didn't know she was the one playing already. She's beating those things into submission :P
Not a drummer either. Is it bad to say I kinda liked her version better? There's a couple of bits from the original that I still prefer but damn hers has more energy, which I didn't think was possible to add to a RATM song
People need to realize that these exercises are not about nail the drum parts, but to see a differente drummer in action on a song, their process, approach and creativity. There's nothing to be afraid of.
She actually came up with great fills!
I like this comment a lot.
Fr I’d be way more scared of the challenge where they learn the actual drum part
@@CristianKirk what are fills?
@@mejulian01 fills are drum phrases that guides the music to another session. Example: at the end of the verse the drummer can do a fill and then the chorus begin.
You do a groove and sometimes you finalize it with a fill.
Wow, that was great. Very creative and so much energy, loved it!
This song is hallowed ground for me. She. absolutely. nailed. it. Improved it in some ways. The second verse, the snare fills during “they don’t gotta burn the books”. Top class. What a drummer, will check out her bands. 😮🎉
Her high-hat work is freaking amazing. A lot of people get sloppy with the tempo and whether the high-hat is open or closed, but she was not just controlled but absolutely precise.
Hilarious when she said she was trying to pick up on the dynamics. Angry. Its angry all the way through. She absolutely crushed it especially with a single take. Another great addition to the series.
Yeah, but there's still dynamics. Sometimes it's loud angry. And sometimes it's very loud angry.
Uh yeah the ride was unangry. That was why she didn't suspect it sheesh
Sigh. If classical music had markings like, “angry” I would have been a different person now. Sigh. 🤓
@@esthershin9690 Classical music does have the direction "furioso", furiously.
so much talent right there. best thing I've seen on youtube in months
Jess is one of my favorite guests you've had on in the past, so glad you brought her back in for some Rage!
When they said “you’re in your own head”, this is what they mean.
She KILLED that take, and everyone loves her take, but she’s her harshest critic.
But she couldn’t believe she KILLED IT. She did kill it! She’s amazing.
Her personal break down was actually refreshingly honest. She did great. She could of let it breathe in spots a little more, but she points that out herself. Plus she was simultaneously doing the exercise and playing around with the song to feel it out. I thought her after commentary was every bit as good as the performance was.
But that's what makes good players good is that they don't settle for mediocre.
@@plane_guy6051 That’s true. But, respectfully, there’s also a difference between imposter syndrome and honest criticism.
I’m surely projecting my own issues onto this musician, and I hope she never doubts her own skill.
But the human condition is to question and doubt oneself, rather than own excellence whilst striving to be better.
All this to say, she’s amazing, I love her take, damn good interpretation.
@@TheRayfield77 100%
Yeah I'm not a fan of how harsh she was on herself. The part that always twists me up is when she says "This is really gonna put me in my place" And I'm just like "girl, your place is at that fucking drumset, because you have good skills and improvisational talent."
To be honest, I'm never disappointed that someone never heard a "very famous" song when it's in this kind of video. Because it means the video is going to be a killer vid.
It’s not believable that someone can be an expert drummer and never have heard these songs.
90% of such titles are total BS. How can any musician have never heard Rage? Impossible.
@@rockinggator969lost of people listen to one or a few genres. They may not like something heavier or of a different sound. Plus age of course. Too old or too young and you might not know some songs even if the band itself is very popular or well known.
@@rockinggator969 Most professionals spend their time making music not listening. they in their own bubble many times.
@@Rob-qr2knthat’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard in a while… professional musicians listen to tons of music all the time
Love this girl, she absolutely nailed it. Such amazing instinct and for it being so similar to the original it had its own fresh groove with the high hat and kick drum. Brilliant. Had a big smile on my face all the way through.
I love her energy, fits perfectly with this kind of song !
She nailed it !
Wow she is quite humble! She might not have "nailed it," per se. But she fucking NAILED IT!
Uhhh what are you talking about. She clearly knows who Rage Against the Machine is
@@rustincole_w1339WTH are YOU talking about? Did you watch the video? She nodded her head when they told her it was Rage like she’d heard their name before but it was evident she didn’t KNOW their music. If she hasn’t heard THIS song before it’s safe to say she doesn’t know the bands work. Original comment was spot on.
Is not about nailing exactly what the song does, it's about how the drummer interprets it for the first time in their own style/way. Pretty good to me, I don't like the posture, but the sound is quite good for what it is.
@@itsDelfi I'm pretty sure that's exactly what OP was saying
@@simonhaines7301 With less words, yep! :)
I still have no clue how Drumeo ever entered my algorithm, but I'm so glad it did, I'm not a musician, but I always get pumped with every * hears * for the first time, I hope this series goes on for a long time!!!!!
Right there with you!
Fucking amen on that I first had the dude learning tool and it was amazing loved it since
Me too on all fronts!
same
Yeeeeeeeees girl. Great job. Gives the song a new touch. Thx for interpretating this in your way. Amazing.
Sheee nails it!!! This has to be one my favorite performances on this series. Amazing
Her anticipation of change ups and overall rhythm is to DIE for.
To Die For! You absolutely nailed it!
Rage needs to pick her up. ASAP
Her “overall” rhythm 😂
I'm an old stoner who eats and breathes Rage but didn't know who Jess Bowen was. Wow!!! So much respect for her skill and her spirit!
It's crazy how much they sold out.
@@blickedxb ?
@@blickedxb Sold out?
@Kevin-me2dz Yes, started pushing the vaccine and everything like that. Bent the knee for the democrat party. They were supposed to be one of those bands that was against big government
@@Kevin-me2dz looks like YT deleted my comment. Their all about bending the knee to big government now.
I personally loved every moment of her playing this off the cuff, her additional drumming at the beginning was really awesome!
I’ve watched this multiple times and I appreciate how much fun Jess is having. Something that’s missing from other drummers on here. Thank you
It's so crazy that she thought she didn't do it justice. Holy cow she absolutely killed it!!! Amazing soul, took her one take and just rode that wave to greatness!
She fuckn murdered absolutely 187 murder death killed that shit. Absolutely turned it into a dope amazing remix.
The beauty in Brad’s playing is his simplistic approach, allowing the drums to support his he riffs and vocals. She absolutely captured that.
Almost the same type of drummer...
That smile of pure fun whenever she dropped into the snare and high hat of the verses can move mountains.
Watching this again a few weeks later, the real stand out is how amazing the kit sounds not just her incredible playing.
Never heard of this woman but Chad Smith and Ms. Bowen, so far, are the only drummers who did a song without taking notes. Thanks for inviting her to play and releasing this footage because i am gonna look up all the bands she played with!!
She's the drummer for a band called The Summer Set. she's an amazing drummer.
@@humgoesonforever thank you for the reply
bro no way you’re serious. That’s pretty impressive but jonathan sugarfoot played the song PERFECTLY without even listening to the drumless track before
Brad’s drumming is so simple and understated. I really liked hearing Jess’ more complex take, with more accents and fills. She absolutely nailed it!
Yeah she had a “harder” feel that really works well. I guess I never realized how groovy the original kinda is.
This is an excellent take. Brad does what he hears the song telling him to do. Jess heads a different voice. Both add different but equally effective support.
@@scene24man Along with lyrical content and Tom Morello's musicianship, what really separates Rage from the rest of the 90s rap rock also-rans is how tight and funky their rhythm section is.
Yeah, Rage used a lot of primal beats in their songs and let Tom explore the room with his unique guitar wizardry. The drums were used more as a thump than a musical instrument at times, which is probably what made them so good. If Brad were back there using a lot of fills, double bass, complex signatures, etc it probably would have drowned out Zack’s crucial lyrics and Tom’s riffs somewhat.
now THAT is a name I haven't heard in a minute. was a huge fan of TSS as a teen, always a great show, and Jess was one of my favorite drummers :) great stuff.
Wow!! Quite possibly one of my favorite episodes!! Loved it!
Her ghost notes are on point!
Completely agree! Those ghost notes really added a lot to her performance
Great
I love to see drummers who smile while they are playing, because we feel the same listening to them...
So when go to a rock or metal concert you smile right
@@TheIcpfan23...yes??
I hate that
@@likearollingstone007 I hope you get better soon!
Musicians enjoying themselves, what a sadist@@likearollingstone007
Saw her band & met her back in San Antonio, way back in later 2000’s. She was super down-to-earth & took time to chat w/ us.
If this is truly one take it's truly amazing the way she instinctively pulled back and gave the important parts room.
THAT WAS INSANE!!!!!!! That first take was just incredibly good. Absolute hats off 🤯
Bahahahha okay champ it was terrible
Are you kidding me? You’re just a hater
I didn’t know who Jess Bowen was, but I do now!
She nailed it like any pro would have.
Great job!
She's in a band called The Summer Set
She is a pro.
Love the version.. just amazing.. kudos!!
Man did she crush that! It was super cool to hear another take on this great song!
She freaking killed it for a genuine first take. One of the best "For the first time" I've seen so far.
Simp
genuine? she's heard it. lol stop
its not the first time shes heard it. shut up lol
Thx@@goon565
@@michaelpoteate5138Because everyone else must've heard the same songs as you? 🤡
God damn those 16th notes on the hihats are HEAVY. All from the wrist. That's sick.
And how on earth is this first take so good? That's mindblowing. Her reaction to the song structure and energy is on point.
She's absolutely my new favorite drummer. I absolutely love how she plays and her style Just speaks to me.
I can't wait to go out and check out her body of work.
I LOVED the ghost notes she played on that riff that is technically not supposed to have any drums. That REALLY sounded good.
The use of a ride instead of hats during the verse is something that stands out so much in this song, and I absolutely love it.
Agreed; IMO it gives way to be more of a groove with the bass leading the charge until the chorus hits.
@@EddieMitz This! This is it.
Do you mean the other way around? The original has ride on the verses and she did hi hats.
@@Gawillamon that’s how I interpreted Motorsheep’s comment, so I think he just got it backwards. His point stands though I think; the ride on the verse gives it a real jazz-like groove to the drums for the bass to ride along with 👍
@@Gawillamoni think they were referring to the original version.
this is another example of a "very simplistic drum part" given extra color and dynamism. she nailed the general feeling and cranked it up way beyond what the original drums do. amazing. bravo
Her read on the accents was excellent
Makes you appreciate the work drummers have to do to bring energy to songs... that was impressive!
I have had a crush on Jess since 2012 when I seen her and The Sumer Set on the Vans Warped tour, she was amazing live! Thanks for bringing her on here, haven't seen much of her over the past few years.
Jeesus, she is talented.. that was an awesome version which 100% did the song justice. Could easily stand on its own! Great job!
Jess is a beast -- the fact that she listened once and got through the song with no real flubs is pretty amazing. Really great feel. This song is a great example of simplicity, execution and dynamic shift -- the less is more cliche applies.
Or this is an example of how simple the song structure is.
i just absolutely LOVE this series
She absolutely slayed this song and just hearing it one time and going for it🔥
I don't know what the heck happened but when she started to play the beat to the verse almost like Brad does on the record i had some tears of joy and i laughed out loud. This drumeo format is something that i hope will never ever ever die❤
7:03 it clicked. 🤘🏻
The fact that this channel has gotten SO big and has been able to have all of these incredible drummers onboard makes me so happy. I’ve been a fan for years, even as a non-drummer. I love that you guys facilitate young musicians understanding how these drummers are able to do this type of thing, always putting the “active listening” explanation. You guys rock. Keep it up
She absolutely rocked it while rocking the Chuckie Ts. Awesome!
I like her version a lot. Very High energy performance, it let's you appreciate the song in a new way. I also like how she did the occasional mimic of the guitar and bass. Super Awesome.
The smile on her face when she played the first verse is amazing! She was in the song, in the groove, deep in the beat. That was impressive!
I think I now know where Ms Bushell has her funny expressions from 🤣
Love it though
Chills! Literal chills!
She did not just crush the song, she told a story, incredible dynamics, energy building, incredible feel! What a beast
first time on this channel.... and OMG, please don't stop... this was EPIC!!!!
Arrasou demais, Jess ;) Incrivelmente bem :) Essa série é incrível e SIMPLESMENTE AMAMOS as bateristas mulheres!
The musical universe is so much larger than we could ever comprehend - this series is effin’ brilliant!!
Never touched a drum in my entire life and I love these videos SO MUCH
Get into it!
She was awesome, especially in one take! Very humble and real drummer, with great talent.
Til today I have never heard of this woman, but so so glad I clicked... that was awesome
The artists they bring on this channel are so consistently amazing I think it’s easy to take for granted how impressive doing something like this is.
Major insight right here folks
As someone who air drums to this song a LOT at the gym, I know this song intimately and she nailed this! Well done!
Have never heard of her before but I sure as hell will from this point on. Absolutely talented. She killed it. I think I might like her version better. From one drummer to another Great job!
This might be my favorite one from this series. I didn’t expect any of that from her.
For a first-time play-through with zero preparation, SHE FUCKING CRUSHED THAT! These "Hearing For The First Time" videos are killing me, I love them, keep 'em coming as long as you can Drumeo.
Takes courage to play the drums to any song after one take and put it out there in the public domain. Massive respect.
"Rage Against The Drums" by Jess Bowen. Superb!
