Shawn Crowder - Drum Solo in Atlanta Shawn Crowder 2022-09-20 | Transcription (thanks to AJ!) ajsmusictutoring.com/shawn-crowder-drum-solo-in-atlanta-transcriptionOne of my favorite things about improvising a solo each night is sometimes the audience becomes a part of the improvisation. Recorded 9/18/2022 with Sungazer in Atlanta.Also check out AJ's substack: drumstickler.substack.comShoutout to DJ at Terminal West for the multi-track audio. This is a quick drum mix I did in the van on AirPods, with a little camera audio (DJI Osmo Pocket 2) mixed in as an audience mic.Sorry it’s in vertical! Filmed for Instagram, reposting here. 🤷♂️

1 YEAR of Touch Guitar progress (heres what I learned) Shawn Crowder 2022-01-06 | ○ Touch Guitars: touchguitars.com○ Markus Reuter: youtube.com/markusreuter○ Anchor and Burden (studio project Markus & I collaborated on): anchorandburden.bandcamp.comI've been learning to play Touch Guitar for the past year under Markus Reuter's instruction. It's been an incredible journey and here's what I learned!ABOUT MARKUSMarkus teaches remote 1-on-1 lessons for any & all "touch" instruments (Chapman Stick, Warr Guitar, Touch Guitar, etc.) and two-handed tapping technique for standard guitar as well. You can reach him here: info@markusreuter.comAdditionally, all of my lessons with Markus and updates on this project can be found here:youtube.com/playlist?list=PLw43zZsGtzx7TZni1pD0ZfgJqKMRiIIjKABOUT TOUCH GUITARSThis video is more about the journey and learning process than the instrument, but in case you're curious: The Touch Guitar is an 8-string guitar, tuned in 5ths, and played with a tapping or 'touch' technique. Range is that of a 5-string bass, plus standard guitar. Scale length is 34" (bigger than guitar, smaller than bass). It's more similar to a traditional guitar than a Chapman Stick, in terms of sound, tuning/string layout, and single output (though they have many customizable options). You can learn more about the Touch Guitar in my previous videos, or on their website: touchguitars.com

Why Counting Improves Your Rhythm & Timing Shawn Crowder 2019-09-26 | Follow-up video answering counting-related questions: youtu.be/4Bhj-qrB6AoHow does one best develop solid rhythm and timing? Counting out loud is the most powerful practice tool at our disposal. Counting does wonders for our timing, precision, and consistency. It's the key to mastering complex rhythms and playing accurate to the millisecond. To get the most out of your practicing, you need to be counting.A couple books for developing your counting skills:Rhythm Knowledge, Volume 1 & 2 - by Mike ManginiUniversal Rhythms - by Dave DicensoSupport me on Patreon: ○ patreon.com/shawncrowderMerch:○ teespring.com/stores/shawn-crowders-merchListen to my band Sungazer:○ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2sdTSJ5○ iTunes: apple.co/2LUckPT○ Facebook: bit.ly/2UtZFaiFollow me on Instagram:○ instagram.com/shawncrowder

What makes The Black Page so difficult? Shawn Crowder 2019-08-21 | ○ Patreon: patreon.com/shawncrowder○ Merch: teespring.com/stores/shawn-crowders-merch○ Sungazer: https://spoti.fi/2sdTSJ5Frank Zappa's "Black Page #1" is known for being difficult to play. But is it? If so, why? I decided to learn it to find out.Here I document the process of learning "The Black Page" on the drums, from start to finish. I spent one week learning this piece before recording the final performance at the end of the video.The drums are unedited and the MIDI backing track is 100% quantized. It's not easy to line everything up, but with practice, you can do it!PS - For those interested in learning these types of rhythms, I highly recommend Mike Mangini's "Rhythm Knowledge" books. Volume 2, in particular, has a plethora of exercises pertaining to tuplets and counting that have helped me out tremendously over the years.Listen to my band Sungazer:○ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2sdTSJ5○ iTunes: apple.co/2LUckPT○ Facebook: bit.ly/2UtZFaiInstagram:○ instagram.com/shawncrowder
