You must be asking yourself all sorts of questions: How do I start on the drums? It is hard? Can I do it by myself? How long until I can play drums along with my favorite songs? Do I need to buy a drum kit? Rest assured, those questions are common, even the best drummers started somewhere and asked those same questions.
In our guide, you will discover the tips and tricks that will quickly turn you into a drummer, without any stress. You’ll see that with a little bit of practice, you can get to a satisfying level of skill that allows you to have fun and move on to more serious exercises.
Do you think that learning the skill of drumming requires you to know how to read music or even know how to stay in pitch? Do you believe that it requires a teacher, or the purchase of acoustic/digital drum set (and therefore have the space, the budget and the neighbor trouble that often comes with it…)? Well not anymore…! Redison’s 5 days method changes the way you can learn how to play drums!
Learning to play the drums is now available to everyone. Everyone, no matter what their age or experience with music, can get started on the drums. No need to read music right away to start learning.
