VIMIC‘s October 3rd show at the Teragram Ballroom in Los Angeles, CA will feature Crypta‘s Luana Dametto on drums in place of the late Joey Jordison. The supergroup will perform the reunion show in celebration of Jordison‘s life and legacy, with proceeds to Joey Jordison Charitable Fund. The reunion show is based around the upcoming release of the band’s previously unreleased album “Open Your Omen“. This crowdfunding campaign was launched earlier this year to raise funds to secure the upcoming release of that record.

VIMIC stated:
“We’re excited to announce that Luana Dametto will be joining us as a special guest drummer for the VIMIC show on October 3rd in Los Angeles! Luana is an incredible talent with power, precision, and passion behind the kit, and we’re absolutely thrilled to have her sit in for this unforgettable night honoring Joey Jordison and the release of ‘Open Your Omen‘.”
Dametto stated:
“Joey was my first drum idol ever (and still my biggest) so at the very beginning, he was my only reference, and what a great reference I picked to have! From his blast-beating style and his relentless double bass, to just how creative his fills and grooves can be, he shaped entirely how I think about drums.
We’re capable of changing a song’s intention with a beat, and that is how Joey used his kit, to translate emotion and intention. He wasn’t just technical or tight; he knew how to use the drums in a unique creative way that we should all reference to and set as a goal. He showed us what music is all about — true emotion and passion.”
She added:
“I first heard about Joey while watching MTV, and also by watching some of his performances upside down on YouTube. At the time, I had bought a drum kit as a hobby, ’cause I was an introverted kid that wanted something to do, a way to make friends and something to spend my days on, but after I got to know about him and see him play, it completely changed how I saw drums, and actually made me wanna pursue it as a career and take it seriously. He is the number one reason I’m here doing this.”
