Seven Eight Drum Course 101
Learn how to play in seven eight time signature with this seven eight drum course
This is the seven eight drum course 101. It teaches you how to understand and count in seven eight by breaking it down and showing that it’s not weird, it’s not scary, it just needs understanding. That’s what I told my wife about me when we met and it seemed to work out! 😉
Once we have that understanding we will build a vocabulary of essential seven eight grooves as well as a series of fills. Armed with these you can not only play in seven eight time signature, but also add variety so you sound interesting. It gives you the freedom to switch things up and build a drum part rather than just hanging on for dear life.
You might already know that seven eight simply means that there are seven eighth notes in a bar. In principal it’s easy but if you’ve ever tried playing it before you might have realised that it gets confusing fast. That’s why this seven eight drum course breaks it down so you fully understand it and then teaches the main skills you need to be able to play it comfortably.
And this acts as a springboard so you can move on to the next level afterwards such as the seven eight drumless backing track and an exciting seven eight funk beat. Beyond that we can develop further until we’re free within the seven eight time signature to improvise and play naturally without having to count hard or think too much.
But first let’s build that foundation and gain a real understanding of how to play in seven eight. Click below to get started.
