Nervosa Drummer Michaela Naydenova Announces Departure; Band Reveals Replacement

Brazilian founded thrash metal outfit Nervosa has announced that they have parted company with drummer Michaela Maydenova. Taking her place behind the kit is former Sinaya live drummer Gabriela Abud. A message from former drummer Maydenova reads as follows:

“At the end of the last year I decided to end my journey with Nervosa and the time has come to announce it publicly. The reason is to provoke myself to experiment more in the musical field. And, of course, I will still be playing drums.

“I was almost one year in the band, had super fun, saw and played many great places and gained a lot of experience for the short amount of time. Met a lot of people and I am thankful to every one of them for their time and energy!

Thank you Prika Amaral, Helena Kotina and Hel Pyre for all the great memories, wish you the best of luck with Nervosa!

“Let’s see what 2024 has to offer.”

A video message from the band, recounting Naydenova’s time with the group as well as the recording of their latest album, “Jailbreak” and the introduction of Abud, can be seen below.
