This Free Drum Lesson covers the Right Hand Lead Concept Using Ted Reed's Syncopation Book as a guide. Remember you are playing the notes written as "swing notes", not straight notes. Great exercise for building up your left hand!

  • In your video are only cases with one or two unaccented strokes in the left hand. How do you play three or four strokes? Somebody explained I should play it LRL and LRLL. But is that correct or is it LLL and LLLL?

  • @Fantasmo81 Hello there. In the case where you have more than two unaccented strokes, you would have to incorporate the right hand, which is fine. Even though the right hands are to be used on all the accents it is okay to use them to "fill in the spaces", so to speak, and play them as unaccented. You never want to play more than two strokes with the same hand in a row with this exercise. Hopefully that clears it up. If not, please let me know. Thanks, ML
