Zildjian Drum Set Workout with John Riley (Part 1)

The ZILDJIAN WORKOUT project was created to give YOU the opportunity to "learn-while-you-drum" along with the top Zildjian artists. Covering three levels of technical demand, each video will cover several exercises that will not only help you improve your fundamental skills, but also expose you to the drumming philosophies of some of today’s master instructors!

In this first installment of three Zildjian Drum Set Workouts, John Riley takes you through the 2 & 3 note rhythmic variations under the jazz ride pattern – first with the left hand, then with the bass drum.

In the next workouts, John will introduce higher levels of complexity to this fundamental independence exercise!

You can download the PDF for this workout and check out other Zildjian Workouts at:

This weeks guest is Mark Stepro. Mark is the epitome of an LA-based working drummer with a resume that includes recording and/or performing with The Wallflowers, Ben Kweller, Courtney Love, Jackson Browne, Brett Dennen, Keith Urban, Dwight Yoakam, John Prine, Butch Walker, Leon Bridges…the list certainly goes on. Mark has an infectious energy and we actually shared lockouts across from each other in LA for about a year without ever realizing it. I always just heard this great drummer across the hall that reminded me how much I needed to work on my feel. Soooo thanks Mark! We start the show with walk down memory lane before hopping into Mark’s top 5 influences that made him into the drummer he is today. Cheers!
