In this Drum Lesson you will learn some basic 5/8 Grooves and an easy concept to create them yourself. 5/8 is a pretty odd time signature and takes a while to get used to, but it is another important tool in your toolbox. Mastering odd time signatures will give you a certain awareness of how a groove is built and a stronger feel for the '1'.

These time signatures can be found everywhere not only in Jazz, they also appear in Pop, Funk, Rock and Metal.
