Drum Lessons

Drum Solo Triplets

Blistering singles and doubles between the hands and feet in a triplet pattern.

Drum Groove and Fill

Play R,L,F and L,R,F to very slowly to a metronome as 16th notes. This three over four feel will help you understand the rhythm.

Solo Groove

Try this on the practise pad first. Get comfortable with the right hand sticking as much of the bass drum pattern copies this.

Kick Hat Snare 08

Practise the 'closed' roll on the edge of the snare. See how many times you can get the stick to bounce on each hand. Then increase the tempo.

Triple Stroke Bass Drum Exercise

Use the heel-toe method to play a double stroke. Add another toe stroke to complete the triple stroke.

Manky Beat

A manky sounding linear pattern played open-handed between hihat, snare and floor tom.
