New Video Series
Hello all! Today, I am beginning a new video series devoted to hybrid rudiments. There are hundreds of hybrid rudiments, and they are a vital part of modern rudimental drumming. I aim to provide a video reference for the hybrids previously covered in the Hybrid Rudiments section of this site. The series kicks off with Hertas over at the Drummin’ Around channel @drumminaround. New videos will be added regularly over the next several weeks and can be seen in the Hybrid Rudiments Playlist as they become available for viewing. Enjoy, and happy drumming!
