Lucas
How many minutes to practice: 15-30
What to practice: This week Lucas I want you to work on the beginning beat to Back in Black
How to practice effectively: Here is the link to my video to help: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QvqQnDLBEEbmT5PpdQBIdVcixSIZ0CcI/view?usp=sharing
Start by playing the normal beat a few times. Then try the fill without the bass drum. Then add in the bass drum. Then add the crash at the end and practice re-starting the beat. It may be tricky but I know that you can do it!!
Jonah
How many minutes to practice: 30
What to practice: This week Jonah I want you to continue working on Immigrant Song by Led Zepplin. Heres a video of someone playing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXKGPa1CW5Y&ab_channel=MaximiliamAndersson
How to practice effectively: For this song, try to catch the drum beat by ear. It doesn’t change to much in the beginning but its a powerful groove that takes a lot of energy! We’ll try to get up to the bridge next week!
Awesome job jumping into this today!
Sam
How many minutes to practice: 30
What to practice: This week Sam focus on getting through to the last section of Heart Don’t Stand a Chance from the Anderson .Paak Tiny Desk concert.
How to practice effectively: Don’t get too down in the weeds with this part of the song. Try to catch the big details and follow those but don’t get too stuck on all of the small things he’s doing. We’ll work on the last section next week.
Have fun at prom this weekend!!
