Nine Eight

This drum lesson tackles the nine eight time signature. Here we will breakdown six different grooves, three fills and use a backing track practice loop. We will look at different phrasing options within the time signature and reference famous tracks where relevant that you can check out to see these grooves in action.

By the end of this lesson you will be grooving in nine eight and should be well on your way to playing comfortably in this time signature. 

This works well with the Nine Eight Playalong track (found on the Total Drummer Playalongs page) so you will have the confidence to tackle that as well.
