  • Drummer
  • Birth place : West Chester, PA

Jess Margera is the older brother of professional skateboarder and filmmaker Bam Margera, alongside whom he is considered a founding member of the CKY Crew, which worked on the video series of the same name. He chose to play the drums as he had two uncles who played the instrument, one of whom later worked as a drum technician on a CKY tour. His “biggest influence” was Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, but as a young musician he also took an interest in jazz drummers such as Elvin Jones.


1993–2002: Foreign Objects, CKY and Gnarkill Edit

Margera first played in a band in 1991 or 1992. One of his first bands was Soalroach, which featured brother Bam and friend Ryan Dunn. He later formed Foreign Objects with future CKY vocalist and guitarist Deron Miller, whom he originally met at high school. The band released its debut extended play (EP) The Undiscovered Numbers & Colors in 1995. Along with bassist Ryan Bruni, the duo later performed under the name Oil, before meeting guitarist Chad I Ginsburg (who was then working as an audio engineer) and changing the name of the band to CKY. Speaking about the formation of the band, Margera recalled in a 2003 interview that the main reason he joined CKY was Miller’s guitar playing ability, particularly his ability to write “complicated riffs that are catchy”.

As a member of CKY, Margera performed drums on all four of the band’s studio albums, and was credited for contributing to songwriting on Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild.

Margera was also member of the CKY-related comedy band Gnarkill, formed in 2002, alongside Brandon DiCamillo on vocals, guitarist Rich Vose and brother Bam on keyboards; he performed on both studio albums: 2002’s Gnarkill and 2006’s GnarKill vs. Unkle Matt and the ShitBirdz.

2002–2011: Viking Skull and The Company Band Edit

In November 2006, it was announced that Margera had joined English band Viking Skull, replacing founding member Gordon Morrison. Speaking about his replacement of Morrison, Margera has revealed that he unwittingly contributed to the temporary breakup of the band in 2006, after drinking heavily with the band on tour. The new lineup released the album Chapter Two in September 2007, which was mixed by CKY guitarist Chad I Ginsburg. Viking Skull and Ginsburg (this time as producer) worked together again for the follow-up album Doom, Gloom, Heartache & Whiskey, recorded and released in 2008 in the US. The CKY collaboration was extended further, as Joe Frantz and Margera’s brother Bam directed the music video for the song “Hair of the Dog”.

In addition to his work with CKY and Viking Skull, in 2007 Margera formed The Company Band, a supergroup featuring Clutch frontman Neil Fallon and Fireball Ministry frontman James Rota. Each of the bands had toured with one another between 2005 and 2006, after which the group began jamming together and eventually formed into an official band. With the addition of guitarist Dave Bone and bassist Jason Diamond, the band recorded its debut EP Sign Here, Here and Here with producer Andrew Alekel and released it later in the year. The band recorded its full-length debut in 2009, and released it in November that year as The Company Band. Another EP, Pros & Cons, was released in 2012.

2011–present: Fuckface Unstoppable and future Edit

The fate of CKY was cast into doubt in 2011, when the band released a video in which each member spoke about their desires for the future of the band; all members but Ginsburg wanted to record solo albums, while the guitarist favoured releasing another CKY album. Miller later claimed that Ginsburg had left the band, while Margera tried to calm the situation by suggesting that the frontman had problems with alcohol abuse, and that he needed “support … not insult”. Margera, along with Ginsburg and bassist Matt “Matty J” Janaitis, later returned as CKY in 2012 with Year Long Disaster frontman Daniel Davies in place of Miller. This lineup (with Matt Deis in place of Janaitis) later reunited in 2015, following another split with Miller. Margera has claimed that Davies offered to join the band during a phone call with the drummer, after he had performed on the singer’s solo album.

Margera also performs drums in brother Bam’s group Fuckface Unstoppable, and has contributed to both studio albums: Stórfréttir Í Reykjavík and Fuckface Unstoppable.

+9 Best Jess Margera Quotes, inspiration and Motivation with photos (2020)

 

It’s mellow. It’s just, when the camera’s on people know to try to get footage and all of that.

It’s pretty stupid to not know who your fans are. To not know who’s buying your albums and going to your shows.

I have no problem being connected with Bam. He’s my brother, and he’s helped us out. But I think it’s time we stand out on our own. We’re trying to take it to the next level all by ourselves.

We signed with Roadrunner because, they almost signed us in ’97 or something, and we’ve been wanting to work with Monty Connor, the guy who signed us, for a long time because he’s been a huge fan of us since, I mean, in high school, when I was in high school and he was following our band.

Island Records used what we built and tried to cash in on it which is so annoying. So it came time to do Carver City record and Island wanted to do it and we’re just like “What’s the point?” I mean, at that point they were even admitting like, “Yeah, we’re just gonna do what we’ve always done.”

It was very necessary I think ’cause you know, when the band’s over, or at least in our heads, for a year it makes you really realize how lucky you are to be doing this and why piss in the well?

We were on Island Records for five or six years and we kinda just got tired of them always wanting to use our connections, all the time. It’s like, they didn’t really do much for us, I mean, they would give us money here and there and you know, do stuff like that but, I mean, overall, they didn’t push us.

We always need to have someone help with videos, I think all of our DVDs could’ve been better but our music video, I love all the music videos, but the actual behind-the-scenes and stuff of our music video DVD, it was rushed and didn’t turn out great.

We put out a live thing, it seemed more like a bootleg though but, it would be nice to see like a concert filmed with like good cameras you know, instead of just DV cams.

Even the world’s most successful individuals like Jess Margera have experienced their fair share of setbacks and hardships. And there’s much to learn from their challenges as well as their success.

Life throws curveballs. And while there might be blockers to success, it’s imperative to keep pushing with the knowledge mistakes will be made and failure is inevitable.
