Triplet Tom Grooves

Triplet Tom Grooves

Description

This lesson explores some ideas for half-measure triplet tom fills. All of these patterns use alternating sticking (i.e. R L R L, etc.). Make sure you pop the accent on beat 4 to make these grooves rock. You can also explore other dynamics such as a crescendo to bring these to life.
