Welcome to 5 Minute Monday!!

Hello everyone!!  This weekly (hopefully weekly!) venture is one that is going to allow me to start mentoring and teaching.  I’m by nature not a great teacher, so it’s something that I want to cultivate and work on.  Each monday I’ll post a YouTube video with a 5 minute lesson or discussion on a certain drum topic, groove, concept, etc.  We’ll talk about different grooves, concepts, tuning, philosophy, and hopefully have some fun.  We’ll tackle some simple stuff and delve into some more complicated stuff as well.

This is in no way meant to be a one way street.  This was started as a way for me to connect with other drummers around the world.  It is meant to be a discussion.  This is why I need your ideas.  Please tell me what you want to talk about, discuss, and if it’s something I’m not sure about, we’ll learn together!

So this is where you come in!  Please comment or direct message me on twitter and let’s get started!  Thanks a bunch and I look forward to our Mondays together!!!

Blessings!!  Tommy Harden

Kip Moore Record July 2010

Kip Moore rocks!!  He has a lot of Springsteen in his influence and can totally emote with his amazing voice.  I’ve been privileged to work with Kip for several years now.  Here are some pics from his record date a couple o months ago at Oceanway in Nashville, in the big room.  Kip is produced by the legendary Brett James, who Ive been working for since the late 90′s.  Brett never fails to inspire me, he’s endlessly creative, and continues to crank out hit after hit.  Look for Kip’s record out soon!!
