Drum Solos





Drum solos are an important part of every artists skill set. It is the musician's way of standing out within a song. In other words, showing off. And if you have the skills, why not impress somebody.

But, how do you build these skills? The best way is through building a solid drumming foundation through the 40 basic rudiments. Click here for my free lessons on Drum Rudiments.

While rudiments are a good starting place, there are many other things to consider when building your own solos. A few of these are covered in my Beginner Drum Lessons, but most of what you will need to know is covered in Advanced Drum Instruction. It covers advanced drumming concepts, rudimental ostinatos and techniques necessary for great solos.

Below are a few videos of stand out solos.





Drum Sheet Music



For more help with building your own skill set and learning how to perform solos, you may want to check out some Drum Sheet Music. Below are a few examples of the books you'll find. Just click a picture to learn more about each one of these Drum Books.
