The drummer who plays guitar!
Dave Grohl has achieved something quite spectacular, he has been in two of the greatest modern rock bands ever, playing a different instrument in each! Playing drums in Nirvana, and guitar and lead vocal in Foo Fighters! It’s important to understand this progression from drummer to guitar player, as it hugely shapes his particular style. The most obvious element, as you might expect, is his absolutely incredible rhythm, and that’s a huge focus of this course. Secondly, but just as important, is his musicality. He is thinking as a whole band when he writes, not just a guitar player playing his own parts. This is a crucial difference that we need to understand if we want to play in bands.
