CME Sessions: Friendship Commanders | Live At Chicago Music Exchange

Even if you crank those headphones up to 11, you still won’t get even close to the experience of recording Friendship Commanders-the loudest band we’ve ever had in the building, by far! Hailing from Nashville, Tennessee, this heavy duo, composed of vocalist/guitarist Buick Audra and drummer/bassist Jerry Roe, gave us a taste of some tunes off their latest concept album “MASS” (which was co-produced, engineered, and mixed by a friend of CME, Kurt Ballou, at his Salem, Massachusetts studio, GodCity). Hear it here in this week’s CME Session with Friendship Commanders!
Friendship Commanders are a heavy duo from Nashville TN. The band is songwriter/vocalist/guitarist Buick Audra and drummer/bassist Jerry Roe. Their new album, MASS, is a concept record about memory, language, and the state of Massachusetts. The ten-track body of work was co-produced, engineered, and mixed by Kurt Ballou at his Salem, MA studio, GodCity. The album is accompanied by a memoir in essays by Buick Audra. Both were released on September 29, 2023. Their 2022 EP, RELEASE THE REST, is a limited vinyl compilation of the singles they released throughout the pandemic following their 2020 EP, HOLD ON TO YOURSELF, a collection about being an adult survivor of childhood abuse. Both were mixed by Kurt Ballou. The band has released two previous albums. BILL (2018) was recorded at Electrical Audio by Steve Albini, and DAVE (2016) was engineered and produced by the band.
