Synopsis

Drumopedia has been named one of the 5 best beginner drum books by TakeLessons.com, the nation's largest online marketplace for lessons. It has been hailed "a must have for the forward-thinking drummer" by drumming innovator/great, Mike Clark (Herbie Hancock), and "one of the best, most useful and well-written drum instruction books in years" by NY veteran drum teacher, Rick Corwin. In the 23 chapter study beginner drum book by DrumTVShow Publications, Britt takes you one step at a time through basic notation, common stickings and rudiments, popular rock/pop beats and fills, double bass, fun patterns, and some funk, latin, ambidextrous and linear drumming!             
Dan Britt has been hailed one of the most forward-thinking drummers and educators. After he "drew gasps of delight from the crowd" (Modern Drummer Magazine, 2009) at one of the world's top drum events, The Cape Breton Int'l Drum Fest, Britt dedicated the last year to creating the best possible drum book he can. Drumopedia is the result.
