258: Rhythmic Reconnection (with Dave Smith)

Ever felt like your rhythm skills aren't quite what they should be - but you really didn't know what you could do about that?   We've found that typically, the rhythm side of things is massively overlooked by music learners. The basics come easily, and then we kind of forget about actually improving our sense of rhythm.   So even though it's a huge part of the difference between an "okay" performance and a really great performance, often we aren't actually working on our rhythm skills the way we could or should be.   Today we have a mini-interview with our recent Guest Expert, drummer extraordinaire Dave Smith, whose approach to developing your sense of rhythm and your connection to the pulse of music is really special - and really powerful.    Subscribe For Future Episodes!
