Mapex Drums has announced a new partnership with Boston-based drummer and creator Jimmy Pemberton. Pemberton will play Mapex drums exclusively and collaborate with Mapex on future ventures. To kick things off, Mapex is strongly supporting Pemberton’s Benny Beats animated series, currently in development with Studio71.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Jimmy Pemberton,” said Jerry Goldenson, president of KHS America. “We fully share his vision and drive for exposing the joy of playing music to a much wider audience. Jimmy’s abundance of creativity teamed with his business acumen is something very special.”
Pemberton commented: “I’m super excited for this opportunity! The team at Mapex really understands what I’m about not only as a drummer, but a creator. I’m excited to collaborate with them across the board.”
