Here we will learn how to understand the AABA song form for drummers.
In this drum lesson we break down a common song structure and how to play it on the drums. It’s essential to understand these common song forms so that we can play comfortably within the music…..and know where we are within the tune!
You might wonder why a drummer needs to understand the ‘musical’ aspects of a song. Can’t we just groove along and ‘feel it’? Well yes to a point but if you can have a deeper understanding of the song structure then you can add much more emotion to the parts. You can preempt the changes to create the builds and drops to make those changes more exciting. You can set changes up to make it more interesting for the band and listener.
So in short, it will make your drum choices much better. It will also ensure that you don’t get lost within the tune.
