Video Transcript

"In this clip I'm going to demonstrate a blues beat. I'm going to add some fills into this to make it a little bit more intermediate than say a basic beat. I'll do some base drum stuff that's a little bit different from a basic blues beat. So, actually, listen for my base drum with some of the double stuff I do.

That was a blues beat with a couple fills added in there and a little bit of fancy foot work. So, have fun with it."
