My name is Jordan Kelso, and I play drums for Matt Miller. Drumming is a passion of mine that’s been in my life for almost as long as I can remember. I started actively playing drums when I was around 9 or 10 years old. I’ve been gigging in and around my local area for 10+ years and have played all sorts of styles and genres from metal to funk to ska, reggae, punk, rock, and more. Metal drumming is something that I’m very passionate about and is very important to me. The speed, aggression, and melody of the music are very therapeutic for me and help me escape reality for a moment.
In 2023, I embarked on my first European tour with Matt Miller, where we opened for the legendary Death Metal pioneers Possessed. I was also the drum tech on the same tour for Chris Aguier, the drummer of Possessed. In September 2025, Matt Miller will be releasing his album “Fiber Tormentum,” which I not only did the drums for but helped produce, mix, and master as well. This album has crushing melodies, soaring leads, and blistering drum parts that will keep you engaged and on your toes. This is the first album of Matt’s that I’ve been a part of, and I’m excited for what the future holds with his project.”
