One of the biggest challenges when playing bucket drums is their volume level.

🎄🪣 Jingle Bell Rock – Easy Bucket Drumming Play Along

https://youtu.be/L2ObJbg_gfw?feature=shared The holiday season is here, and what better way to bring festive cheer to your music classroom than with a bucket drumming play-along to the classic Jingle Bell Rock! 🎄🥁 In this fun and engaging video, I’ve broken down the rhythm patterns for bucket drumming to make it easy for your students to follow along. The sheet music and song form in the video can be printed out below. The whole song is mostly hand to hand. Right hand Left. Or Vice versa. The only tricky parts may be switching the order from A Section to B Section where you'll play 2 left's in a row. The other is the stop at the F (fill) section. Make sure to count so you can pick back up on beat 2 with the left hand. The end has a fun drum roll! Extend as long as you want and you can increase volume as loud as you want then signal to end together. Woo hoo! or Hooo hooo! (like 🎅 🤷‍♂️ 😆) In the membership, there is the intermediate version and other fun songs and lessons to choose from.Get inside for free here. Let me know how your students enjoy it…

For over 100 years, this cross-genre rhythm has been one of the most universal beats, second only to the downbeat! 🎶 Jazz first introduced it on the hi-hat, Blues moved it to the snare, and soon, Rock ‘n Roll took it even further, influencing classic rock, disco, pop, EDM, and hip-hop. 🌑🌕🌑🌕 Today’s rhythm highlights the backbeat on beats 2 and 4. Many people instinctively clap on 1 and 3, but it’s the backbeat (2 and 4) that brings the laid back groove. Check out this clever move by Harry Connick Jr., who gets the crowd to clap on 2 and 4 without them changing anything! Feel how the energy shifts. Example Songs with a Backbeat: September - Earth, Wind & Fire: The kick drum starts on the front beat (1 and 3) at 8 seconds, then moves to the backbeat (2 and 4) on the snare at 12 seconds. Listen here Queen Bee - Taj Mahal: Notice the backbeat on the kick drum in this reggae tune. Listen here Try It Yourself: Pick a song you’re working on in 4/4 time. Record yourself playing and clap along on 1 & 3 (the front beat) for 4 measures. Then clap…
