“I endorse Remo because I believe in the quality and impact of your products. As a brand that consistently stands out in the industry, Remo has earned a reputation for innovation and reliability, qualities that resonate with both professional musicians and beginners. Remo provides a variety of consistent drumheads that I can always use in any application. I’ve always used Remo on the road and studio. Been touring with pop artist Tate McRae the last 2+ years. My drum technician and I have been in awe about how consistent and durable each head is. I used a Black Max on my snares which isn’t common, however, it’s a testament of Remo having a wide variety of options that WILL work.” – Jarvis “Jeb” Barnes
