ROCK DRUMMING
Rock drumming is one of the most popular styles of drumming in America.
Ever since the Beatles invaded the shores back in the sixties and Elvis Presley started shaking his hips, music started changing forever. The rebellious nature of rock and roll gave youth (particularly) an outlet to express their individualism. Rock was edgy. It was dangererous. Later, the appeal swept the entire nation and even half of the world off it's feet as distorted guitars and loud drums seduced us into a new world of music.

Out of rock music came some of the finest drummers around. While some played a steady two and four, others used their backgrounds in jazz to color the new music. Remember, jazz and swing was the rock music of our great grandparents day. It's hard to imagine that now.
