Every drummer has their own vocabulary and way of expressing it on the drums – that’s why solos are so personal, and why there’s no one right way to go about playing them. You wouldn’t tell an author how to write a book, right?

However, Mark Kelso has some tips you can use to pull out ideas that you already have in your toolbox. Here are five things to keep in mind when you’re soloing (that you didn’t know you already know):

00:00 – Introduction
01:02 – Dynamics
05:03 – Maximizing One Idea
08:06 – Melody
11:29 – Switch Up The Tempo
14:09 – Design by Subtraction
