Disruption! The Voice of Drums is a visceral collision of rhythm and resistance led by award-winning saxophonist-composer Jeremy Rose. At its core are drum visionaries Simon Barker, whose pioneering solo drumming has shaped a generation of musicians worldwide, and Chloe Kim, a fearless creative force recently signed to Charmaine Lee’s New York based Koh Records. Together, they summon a sound world that is at once ancient and futuristic, drawing on shamanic Korean traditions, the ecstatic improvisations of The Necks, and the drummers’ singular rhythmic languages.
With ecstatic ensemble textures, dense rhythmic entanglements and moments of quiet transcendence, Disruption! channels the elemental power of the drum as a tool for transformation. Their debut album was hailed as “ground-breaking in concept and monumental in scale” (Ausjazz.net) and “a brilliant collision of cultures and rhythms… should be brought to international festival stages as soon as possible” ★★★★★ (Jazzthetik, DE).
Disruption! is both urgent and reflective - music for a turbulent era of civil unrest and ecological crisis, and a reminder of the drum’s timeless role: to summon spirits, spark resistance, and bring communities together.
Following their recent tour of Europe and the UK in 2025, they entered the studio and are preparing for their anticipated new album release.
