wonderful and eye-opening lesson for an 85 year old newbie drummer. Many thanks.
Better late than never! I'm 75 years old, been playing since I was 15 years old and the more I learn, the more there is to learn. Learning drums is a wonderful adventure. I started in rock and switched over to jazz about a year later, when I discovered Joe Morello's, "Take Five". He showed wonderful skill at a low volume.
By the time I turned 18, I was moonlighting as a jazz drummer in local resorts, playing for dance parties and watching couples dance to my rhythm. What a great feeling! I've been playing part-time ever since.
Also, learn all you can about playing with brushes which is another great adventure.
Don't worry about speed. It will come naturally. Focus on time, volume and rudiments. I'm still learning and I try to practice everyday.
I wish it didn't feel so weird to see a female playing the drums, i'd like to see it more
Mikey Ruiz Comd down to jam nite in Chicago. You might very well find almost a whole band of women. A drummer (me), a bass player, sax chick, usually a guitar player and a flutist. I often also wind up.singing or playing congas, too. To not be bored waiting to play. Like ketchup, congas go with damn near anything...it's at Fuller's on Irving Park, usually a Saturday. Look up their Facebook, and scroll for Dennis da Menace on chalkboard photo, that's a good jam nite. Good people there.
check out Devikah on RUclips, she might actually have done the best Whiplash/Caravan cover (from Whiplash, lol) I've seen on RUclips
specially an older one. Now there are plenty. I bet she´s had her fun playing with someone´s expectations.
Acknowledging it only perpetuates the issue I'm afraid.
I have playlist called 'WOMAN DRUMMERS'. I like, collect them.))) In a good way. They rare. Agree. And I dunno why
Takes 9 lifetimes to swing that hard!
@Niels Myrner I knew I recognized your name! Your "intro to jazz" videos are what got me started on drums. What a fantastic little series they are. I appreciate you! Love and thanks from Youngstown, OH.
And not once did she say "hey you tube cats' and offer some corny life lesson, just clear instructions, which was very refreshing.
Didn't drop any names either.
Wow...
This video is an overwhelming amount of ammunition for self-study. There are so many ideas here which, on their own, could lead to hours of practice/playing/fun. I wont claim that I'm going to try them all - but for 6 minutes spent on a very simple concept, I'd say this video is invaluable.
I'm now a Maricle fan!
This is a great video, and excellent teacher, clear, detailed explanation & demonstration. Would be nice to study with someone like that. Guess these videos are the next best thing. :)
This was a really great lesson, Sherrie is a fantastic drummer and, even more importantly, a great teacher!
I love her snare sound, Thanks for the Upload!
+Fatsacks Allday Glad you enjoyed her work! We'll be posting more lessons by Sherrie over the coming weeks! Please share the video

Sounds great, and it looks like the cheapest, entry-level steel Tama snare you can find. Those things are like $50 on Craigslist all day.
A great player can make any functional instrument sound a million bucks, and with acoustic instruments ( like a drumkit ) that's even more obvious than with electric ones.
So do I. How tight should the batter side of my snare be. It's pretty tight now but doesn't give me the rebound I want. I want that crisp snare sound. I have added a wider snare wire and tried adjusting the wire to different tensions but I can't seem to find that crisp sound. I'm a rookie so forgive my ignorance. My resonant side is table top tight and so is my batter side and I'm afraid to tighten it any more. Any suggestions? I'll wait for a reply. Thanks ahead of time.
You don't see many white female jazz drummers - cool!
Jiří Fiala You RARELY see female drummers, period, much less good ones. And great drummers of either sex are a total B*TCH to find, too. Wish they didn't look apprehensively at you when the MC says, "She's going to do drums," and you get the idea they don't look thrilled from being female. or "You're playing drums?" yes. Moving on...?
There's a lot more of us out there than people realise :))))
You don't see many minority female jazz drummers either!
Who cares leave race out of it, Means nothing!!!!! Get over yourselves..
I don't understand the need to 'keep gender and race out of it'. What's wrong with expressing you want to see more of a particular demographic in an art form?
So refreshing to see an amazing female drummer. I love drumming but there is definitely a lack of female drummers especially in jazz
Totally agreed.
💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
@@TehVolts Yes ! 💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💖💕💞
Wow! Great sounding snare. Smooth hands. Woman's got game.
Also, she has wonderful communication skills.
I love the snare. I just commented this elsewhere, but it looks like a real low budget, 1980s Tama Rockstar DX. Like an Acrolite, it's hilarious to see this "cheap" snare in the hands of a master.
I like the ride too :D
No sweeter sound to my ears than a skilled a drummer
She is soooooo much better than a younger player beating the daylights out of his/her kit with little-to-no skills. "If you can't play well, play loud!"
Sherrie is a master!
one of those videos I keep coming back to...
Great lesson Sherrie, looking forward to more!
Drum Central me too!
Drum Central :0)
Sherrie Maricle is one of the worlds great drummers and educators
Covered so much ground in only 6 minutes. Amazing player and teacher.
Great! I would not mind taking lessons from her, she has a great sense of feel and has "swag."
H
thanks Sherrie-I play sax all through school, now Im just a self taught drummer, I've been trying to work on my fills. Ill keep watching!
Will this help me play the intro to "My Pal Foot Foot?"
+Robert Sabin Only if you play it very incorrectly
This is officially the best comment on RUclips.
Not too many Shaggs references on RUclips these days
The secret to playing "My Pal foot Foot" is to apply a 13 1/2 stroke roll (using a baguette and wrinkly hot dog) in 7/11 time.
Very smooth jazz playing, Sherrie! I am OK at jazz drumming, but I know jazz chops when I hear them, and you have them!
God, I love jazz drummers
ME ,TOO ~ !!!LOL.👍🎵🐉🎤🎶💜💕💞💜💜💜
She made that swing look so deceptively easy.
Amazing teacher and instructor. Belongs in ANU, UT and Berkely.
That opened my eye to something that should have been quite obvious! Thanks, Sherrie! Great lesson!
I would like to thank Sherrie Maricle for using her gift as one of the worlds Great jazz drummer's to helping & sharing her awesome drum skills with the world !!!
Great lesson! You are obviously a very accomplished teacher with a great amount of teaching experience behind you. I've always wondered how all those jazz drummer's did those little things and now, finally, I learn it's the five stroke roll! How on earth did I miss that over all of these years?
Glad you liked it! If you want to see a full rundown of some of these fundamentals, check out this playlist ruclips.net/video/gFfQ3d5LBr4/видео.html
Jazz at Lincoln Center's JAZZ ACADEMY checking them out right now! Thank you very much!
I agree, great lesson!! I finally know how to play a 5 stroke roll. I will be practicing and incorporating her instructions. enjoyed your drumming. I look forward to watching some of your other lessons. As a female drummer, thank you for your inspiration.
Thanks Sherrie! Great lesson and greatly appreciated.
Yupp....i need to keep practicing. She's a great drummer.
but she said three wrist movements. rlr, lrl. 6 beats? am i missing something?
Eugene Capielo There are three wrist movements, either RLR or LRL but you bounce the first two, making a double stroke out of them. You’re still feeling in three, but the doubles on the first two hits make it five. RrLlR or LlRrL. The caps are the triplets (the wrist movements, the “threes”) and the small letters are the bounces or rebounds from the initial hits. Hope this helps!
thanks!
Fantastic job Sherrie! LOVE the 32nds w/BD on the accented tap! Very well articulated, and great material! I'm def a fan.
Fantastic lesson. Excellent control, clean, accents and dynamics in their proper places, the push and pull naturally of the bar lines, etc. Thanks for sharing.
I like her a lot. She knows her stuff🤟🏾
So inspiring! I'm nowhere near this level but I love your style, you teach very clearly and make me feel like I understand the concepts and have improved my drumming based on your lessons. Thank you so much for producing these videos! Really top-notch.
Wow. I can listen to her for hours! It's like gold for my ears! So much knowledge.
awesome, I like it, I am a Lady too, and drumming is one thing I enjoy doing, for how long have you been a drummer because you sound wow!
I like how she used the sticking, feel and timing of the triplet to show how the 5 stroke can swing. She also illustrated (by showing, not talking) on how important it is to be loose when you're trying to swing! I'm going to work on this right now! I have gotten this feel (somewhat) by doing singles but doing doubles can be a greater economy of motion; getting more with less effort.
Sherrie, Sherrie Lady! Great lesson, great playing! Greets from Poland!
Hello Poland !💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
That fill @ 5:48 is old school money.
Wonderful ideas. Thanks so much Sherrie! Keep up the great work. Mick Berry (co-author The Drummer's Bible/How to Play Every Drum Style from Afro-Cuban to Zydeco)
More women should teach drums!
That opened my eye to something that should have been quite obvious! Thanks, Sherrie! Great lesson!
Clean. Great teacher. First time seeing her and I like her a lot.
Oh.Me, too !👍💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
i want to see sherrie again
I’ve known about her - saw her at Weekend of Jazz 2023 this year. Thank you Sherrie for this video. I’m always doing rudiments around the kit - now to practice these new tips. 👍🏻👍🏻🥁
More women drummers yeaaaa go females!!
Nice.. Big thumbs up!
She is one cool grandma.
Love sherrie! Met her this semester
What a great teacher! I wish she was close to me I would love to study with her.
Wow that kit sound soooo nice. real tight and clear, I hear every single stroke.
wow. great vid. super quick teaching without skipping steps, and done at different speeds. good work. definitely subscribing.
U are a fantastic teacher!
What a great teacher 👌🏼
You are a very good drummer ! You sound very good ! 👍💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞.P.S.I like the way you did the swings ,reminded of my all time fave " Take 5 " !
It's not some dude showing off and giving cryptic explanations how to play, it's a female who is explaining very clearly how to play these cool beats. RELIEF
Absolutely fantastic!! I'm keeping you in my favorites.
She's great! Thanks for posting this video! What cymbals are those? She made them sound so good!
Fabulous lesson. Thanks so much. Doubles on the snare are unforgiving. Got work to do....
I love hearing the end of the tom notes sing when the vocal track pops back in
Damn she's amazing
Jeebus she's soooo smooth
Very good lesson. One simple idea that can go for miles and is very cool sounding. Thanks!
Lovely
She strikes me as someone who would be a tough teacher, but not a mean teacher.
And she's a perfectionist. Your timings had better be perfect.
If you have any drumming ability in you, she will pull it out.
That's what makes a great teacher.
I feel bad when I watch this....because I can't hang. Why haven't I heard of her before. She is showing off.
It’s going to take you about 4 years to get all this ,so don’t be in a hurry you have plenty of time.. especially conquering the traditional grip...✅
I like this because of the triplet pulse...but when playing rock it always comes back to the triplet double strokes (and flams) because the one is always on the right hand which you can get away with (which I guess would be a blushda?).
Podrían traducirlo o ponerle subtítulos en español por favor gracias
oh, sorry - i was misreading. i was interested in five STICK rolling. this one looks like a lot of exercising...
Congratulations madam, you really play amazing!!!!!! Putting in practice stroke roll!!!! Best Regards from La Paz, Bolivia! May I call you professor?
Amazing drummer. I am working on my rolls lately,because they are hideous🥺
Nice lesson, but why you talk at 240 bpm?
I wanna hide behind my big kit but it's not set up, when your instructor tells you practice your rudiments instead of your barstool antics do yourself a favor kids.
She’s great 👍🏻 really enjoyed these exercises!!
way too much information.....supposed to be about the 5 stroke roll not triplets
Bruh I don’t even know how to properly do traditional grip on my sticks. Why am I here 😂
Really great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
i need jazz fills and then boom, the fill based on a rudiment i can do the best
She is amazing
I love drums
You're an excellent teacher. Good voice and presentation.
MUITO BOM , PARABÉMS!!!!!
Hi. ypu'll be so kind to say me which brand and model cymbal stands uses in the video? Thanks you.
I like Sherry
Great lesson. Subscribed.
I absolutely love this snare sound
👍👏💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
Clean as a whistle
What a terrific lesson!
+dibach70 Thanks! Check out more lessons from her here: ruclips.net/video/gQGrDMtiGZY/видео.html
Great lesson, would love a cam on the snare or from the top down, just me. I'm visual
Nicely executed, clean and clear.
Yes !! Being clean/ clear is one of the most important things when it comes to the sound & one of the most difficult things to do when it comes to musical instruments / music ! That sets you apart away from others ( both technically/ skilfulness & sound wise )! Pianos , guitars ,bases ,drums !!!,even vocals especially when we hit very very high notes ! 👍💜💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💕💞
She's not effing around, is she? Day-m. lol.
Wow! First time seeing you. Fabulous. You are my new hero.
The trick is at pianissimo especially while cross sticking.
I especially appreciate by the expression in her eyes the way she hears what she’s playing
I like her a lot. She knows her stuff🤟🏾
Okay she just made this look effortless
Diva Rules!
Obviously, she is excellent. However, I don't quite get how a 5-stroke roll, usually RRLLR and LLRRL with 5 beats is the same as two triplets with 6 beats. I must be missing something. I don't want to say that she is wrong because she is obviously a fantastic and knowledgeable player with tons of experience.
Try to feel the 6th beat on the last (5th) beat. I think I get the inner and last beat she mentioned now, with your reminder sticking. She did at times play an extra beat as an accent - an actual 6 stroke roll - like the 10 stroke is shown on the Tommy Igo / Vic Firth rudiment poster.
So you thought rudiments were boring...
Nice playing & lesson. Thanks!
