How to GROOVE with a Drummer

Going over a few of the basics when it comes to locking in with a drummer. We're learning how to diagnose exactly what's happening with a tasty groove and then adding some of that special MusicMan Stingray sauce to it! Get lost in the sauce.

A little about me:
Sean Daniel is a man. A man of simple needs and desires. And the one desire, no, the one NEED, that stands above all is to spread the challenges, joy and intellectual stimulus of music to people of Earth and beyond.
Born on the mean streets of upper middle class suburban Chicago, Sean learned the ways of the world through the dizzying heights of success to the lonesome depths of failure and emerged with the promise of a better tomorrow reflecting in his eyes and fiery passion in his belly.
He plays and teaches guitar on his KZbin channel where he regularly releases original music and projects to the adulation of legions of fans, who often compare him to Chris Pratt and one time Ryan Reynolds. He’s currently in the market for a nice leather jacket.

Picking a non 4/4 beat on this was really important. Your groove genuinely sounds great :)

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much!

[@sammy-whirl8500]

Dude i love that you pointed out that b note. Filled in a blind spot for me.

[@MikeDGuitar]

I don't play bass or drums (at the moment), but this is such a fundamentally important lesson for understanding the combining of multiple instruments and musical concepts like octave slides and jumps, playing the five on the snare, etc. Bravo, Mr. Daniel!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much!

[@diogenes2550]

Very good, concise lesson.

[@franciscobrizuela3420]

Maaaan your knowledge of the subject is amazing!

[@rickGPT]

So Happy right now. Definately going down low all week. THANK YOU SENSEI

[@seandaniel23]

Have fun!

[@mrjrylynn]

Your lessons really helping me Sean👍👍

[@seandaniel23]

So great to hear!

[@bassedBrad]

I'm bringing that octave slide into my guitar playing for sure... I should really get a bass. Nice lesson

[@seandaniel23]

It's a solid move.

[@youngspanion]

I found this extremely helpful. Thank you

[@seandaniel23]

Glad to hear it!

[@anuragaudesh]

Great Lesson ...Thank you very much Sir 🎼❣️🎸❣️🎸❣️

[@seandaniel23]

Glad you liked it!

[@floridajim1018]

Whenever all that counting gets complicated for me to understand. It's then I realize I've just taken double the pain medication, and will have to continue later.

[@seandaniel23]

Haha, perfect barometer.

[@fm-xv1mq]

thank you for getting right to it, unlike these other vids that talk for an excruciatingly long time about nothing before the lesson. we should jam remotely sometime. i play drums like nobody else.

[@acousticknights9654]

Awesome job breaking down what to listen for with some odd time signatures. I still sporadically have trouble with it on the guitar...but my main issues with odd time is when I'm freestyle rapping over the top. It's been insane to try and keep my rhyming words on time and feel like it's all flowing properly. ...Sorry for the rant. Great video

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much for watching! Rap on!

[@barrycoulter6951]

Thx… that was helpful…!

[@RamonAlejandroMusic]

✌ good info!

[@seandaniel23]

thanks Ramon!

[@davidhoxit4274]

Nice tempo and timing tutorial!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks David!

[@pogchamp7983]

That's funny last night I said to my friend I should start thinking about coming in on different beats when i practice improv... Loving how you're managing to get a new video out every weekday recently! Good stuff Sean. Was it the song you rerecorded with Andrea that was in 6/4? Thought that was pretty cool!

[@seandaniel23]

Yup! I play in 6 a lot.

[@creepymcpeepers]

Kool

[@alansimpson8962]

Yep I think timing and rhythm and learning music theory is giant requirements when learning gutiar

[@seandaniel23]

Totally!

[@xkguy]

It is great idea to introduce guitar players to drummer counting. This was too much too soon. I'd have started with 4/4 and a slower tempo.

[@douglaslay7487]

Agreed. Weird choice,of,where to start.

[@seandaniel23]

Well it's not my first video on counting, which is why I tried to make it a little different ;)

[@xkguy]

@@seandaniel23 I'll check those out. Listening to a guitar teacher saying "up Down Down Up Up" etc drives me nuts. I once spent half an hour trying to figure out what one guy was saying only to realize he was counting over 2 measures. Drummer time is the best way of explaining a songs rhythm. so...thanks...

[@YuriLifeLove]

4:57 It's exactly the rhythm i was thinking from the beginning, without any analysis (or maybe I did it unconsciously)

[@seandaniel23]

:)

[@Aloshi19]

How didn't I see this before.... Y didn't this get recommended to me before?....

[@daveyboy8907]

Nice bass,, I would rather play with my beatbuddy than my drummer...🤣😂

[@daveyboy8907]

Not that beatbuddy either.. 🤣

[@xkguy]

But you can't make fun of your BeatBuddy.

[@seandaniel23]

I've actually never tried the beatbuddy.

[@daveyboy8907]

It's pretty cool man..I think that you would like it...It would give you some content ideas also..@@seandaniel23

[@matthewmikami6192]

Just think Zeppelin. Thanks!

[@JimLarranaga5k]

Sean, has anyone told you, that your voice is very similar to the comedic Steve Martin? Although, you are funnier than him. :-)

[@marknelson8435]

So THAT'S what all those distracted drivers I see are doing: diagnosing a count!

[@seandaniel23]

Now you know!

[@ytusersumone]

Hearing the beat I immediately thought of Captain Beyond's classic "Dancing madly backwards" but then I realized it was a bit harder with its 5/8 and that your beat was 6/8. But nevertheless similar. Check it out ;)

[@seandaniel23]

Good suggestion!

[@ytusersumone]

Very cool micro lesson by the way. Thanks. I'm sure many Heurekas will spring from it! 👍❤

[@krishnankp4543]

sir is it 6 8?

[@seandaniel23]

Yup!
