Solo No.1: Sixteen Boulders

Lesson 3/20 | Study Time: 5 Min

Course: Introducing Beats, Fills & Solos for Drums

Solo No.1: Sixteen Boulders

This sixteen bar drum solo utilizes beats and fills with quarter notes and eighth notes from lessons 1 and 2. It is more important to place the emphasis on accuracy rather than speed. Try to create a relaxed flowing feel and allow the accents to highlight and colour the solo. Remember to count as you play along with the "Beats Fills and Solos" C.D.
