LIVE DRUM PERFORMANCE
June 11th was our Notes for Notes pre-summer Festival, headlined by Zia Jenaye. With opening acts by members Chop God Nick, Baby Virgo, Hannah Banana & more, Zia blessed the N4N stage with a captivating 13-minute performance. After a week of rigorous in-studio rehearsals, Zia showed us the results of proper preparation and dedicated practice, giving us a show that the club members are still raving about today. She performed cover songs like “Heart of a Woman” by Summer Walker, as well as some of her original songs like “I Ain’t Worried” & “Put the Guns Down.”
The pre-summer festival was a treat from start to finish. We opened the show with a drum performance by Nick, AKA ChopGod Nick. Showcasing his unique chops and steady grooves, Nick’s performance set the tone perfectly for the rest of the show. Like Zia, Nick also takes the proper steps in making sure a piece is show ready, through practice and rehearsing. It’s been a while since Nick performed in front of an audience, but he pushed through his nerves and left the whole room inspired.
