History of the Drumset – Part 11, 1948 – Rhythm & Blues

POSTED ON October 1st  - POSTED IN Drum History

While Bebop music was exploring the boundaries of jazz music, it didn’t appeal to the average person who wanted to go out on a Friday night and dance to the music. However, another style also evolved from the big band genre while retaining the dance feel — Rhythm & Blues!

Historical Context

POSTED ON September 23rd  - POSTED IN Daniel Glass Blog, Drum History

One of the things that I think is important when you talk about drumming or the rhythm section is you have to put a historical context onto it. A lot of students are told, “Well here’s this style and here’s that style.” But if they can’t understand how the instrument was evolving at that time or what was happening in the rhythm section at that time, they have kind of a disconnect. It doesn’t paint a full picture.

The Impact of Gene Krupa

POSTED ON September 14th  - POSTED IN Drum History, Drumming Pioneers

Gene Krupa was really the guy who took the drummer from being the time keeper in the back of the band and brought him forward, so that he or she was as much a part of the band as anybody else.

The Answer is YES!

People ask, “How should I play: Matched grip or traditional grip?” And my answer to that question is “Yes.” Heel up or heel down? My answer to that question is “Yes.” The more knowledge you have, the more tools you have in the box, the more you can apply toward whatever music you are playing.
