19:47 - Question for you as we wrap up…
Most drummers are getting a mediocre sound & feel, and they’re sounding more amateur than they should...
...simply because of how they’re hitting their drums.
Here's the question today:
What if one simple technical shift could take your playing from choppy & stiff… to smooth, fluid, and effortless?
The truth is, it absolutely can! I experienced this myself years ago.
I dealt with choppy, amateur-sounding and feeling playing for years even as I became a more advanced drummer in college. But then one night practicing in the band room at my school watching my reflection in the window I noticed something odd with my single strokes.
This discovery completely changed the way I hit my drums forever, and it will change the way you play too.
Today we're breaking down the 4 simple steps to your playing sounding & feeling more professional, which all starts with one simple shift.
YOU CAN DO THIS!
I believe that YOU can become the drummer everyone wants in their band. Anyone can learn the drums, and you’re far more capable of mastering this instrument than you think you are. Don’t sell yourself short!
