Mark Part 3 for Subscribers

Nate Smith May 3, 2015

Hey folks welcome back for another lesson of the week.

This week I revisit Mark G, the drummer who put me on the map. If there's anything that unites 8020 Nation (hah! I should actually call it that;), it's an appreciate for the value of playing both Jazz and Other drums, and a transcription of Locked in a Basement roughed out on a Starbucks napkin.

By the way - should I do a lesson on Locked in a Basement?

Anyway, I've got your weekly Drum Lesson Crack.

Get It!

And now a question - have you struggled with subdivision changes in the past? What have you done to conquer it, and has it worked? Leave a comment below!
