2 Efficient Triplet Stickings For Drum Set

October 19, 2016 Brad Allen

In the last article, we discussed efficient 16th note stickings for funk drumming. Today I’m going to show you how to apply the same concept to triplet stickings. This is especially useful for playing shuffles and jazz.

As mentioned in the last article, it is much easier to learn to play the drum set leading with your right hand, than to constantly switch from  right hand to left hand lead. With that in mind, we’re going to explore 2 basic triplet stickings.

Note: This article is written from a perspective of a right-handed drummer. If you play left-handed,just switch the stickings around and lead with your left hand.
