Awesome Drum Beat - Passenger - Deftones

Awesome Drum Beat – Passenger – Deftones

Description

For this week's lesson we have a crack at one of my favorite drum beats from one of my favorite bands - Passenger By Deftones. The groove is made up of single stroke 16th notes with some tasty accents on the hi-hat throughout the groove to give it an awesome feel.
