What others Have to Say:
"Jeremy Hummel is a triple threat. He has learned the art of groove and ensemble playing combined with real chops as a drummer. He is a rare find."- David Bendeth – Producer of top selling albums by Breaking Benjamin, Paramore, Papa Roach, Vertical Horizon, Hawthorne Heights and others
"In the studio session world, Jeremy is like a one stop shop. His groove is impeccable, and he can play any style you throw at him. I have yet to stump him with that. He also has a huge vocabulary of music that he listens to which is incredibly helpful when you are trying to suss out new ideas. I guess some people enjoy editing drums....I don't. I just call Jeremy, and it's done."- Bret Alexander – Producer and Owner of Saturation Acres Studio
"Jeremy Hummel is equal parts bombast and finesse. He's just as likely to ride hard on his China as he is to tap out an intricate riff on a 6" effects cymbal. He's as interested in "bringing back the gong" as he is in developing more finesse and subtlety on the kick drum. But even with a casual listen, you can tell that Hummel is a drummer's drummer, crafty and aggressive, but never self-indulgent."- Harriet Schwartz – Author of Fire and Finesse article that appeared in the Oct 2004 Modern Drummer magazine
