Join us as we catch up with Jared Kneale and Javier Solis, the dynamic drummer and percussionist duo for Lauren Daigle, during their three-show run and just before the upcoming Kaleidoscope tour. They offer fascinating insights into their approach to rhythm, particularly how they explore different pockets and gaps in the rhythmic texture of the music. Both share the most challenging contexts they've faced and Jared has a hilarious story about a time he had to use a floor tom as his kick drum!
Next, Jared and Javier open up about their journey of learning the art of drumming and percussion. From their humble beginnings in cover bands to working in a drum store, and even a look into the Nashville number system and reading drum charts. They also talk about the song "I'll Always Take You With Me" and the thrill of playing it for Lauren Daigle.
In the final part of our chat, we explore the challenges of maintaining a balanced personal and professional life, especially when touring. Both musicians share their strategies, including staying present with their family while on tour, taking advantage of Nashville's style of touring, and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. Listen in for their invaluable advice for church musicians and worship drummers, emphasizing teamwork, support, and the concept that less is more.
