Rock grooves II: barks, wash, triplets, disco, the build

Past the plain backbeat: open-hat barks, the half-open wash, kick triplets in the style of John Bonham, disco, and on the last day a quiet cross-stick verse built into a chorus over a pop-rock track. Part I is your first grooves at beginner and novice. A song to play along with every day (four tracks).

DrumShed does not listen to your playing, score your accuracy, or measure your timing. Enrolling is an All Access feature ($5.99/mo, or lifetime with Founding Member); free members can browse the whole plan in the app first.
