RHDS Music Courses

Every time you play, more and more you find yourself coming back to the same patterns...

You've always thought of yourself as a good drummer, but it feels like you haven't improved in ages...

And the gap between you and the greats seems as large as ever....

Sound familiar?

Look— we've all been there. Trust me, even legendary players talk about getting stuck in ruts. It's just part of the growth process. 

So what separates the greats from the amateurs isn't the ability to skip these ruts altogether... 

But to GET PAST THEM.

Now you're probably wondering how they do it. After all, you've been trying everything you can think of for some time now, and it seems you're still banging your head against the same wall.

Well... maybe we can get some insight from the great Herbie Hancock: 

"I felt like I was in a rut... playing the same stuff... and I was getting DEPRESSED because of it. And Miles Davis said something to me... I thought he said 'don't play the butter notes'. Then I started thinking... what are the obvious notes? The third and the seventh. So I said, what if I leave those out? It changed EVERYTHING for me from then on. I got more applause for that solo than I did the whole week!"

Herbie credits this moment as a FOUNDATIONAL TURNING POINT in his career. 

But what happened there exactly?

He already had the potential for greatness... in fact he was already well known for his piano playing...

He already had an amazing skillset and creative ability...

But what was he missing?

The answer is a PERSPECTIVE SHIFT.

Herbie Hancock already had all the talent he could possibly want, but what he needed in that moment was the insight of another great player that could see things about his playing that he couldn't.

Someone who was a master of the craft, had played with countless world-class musicians, and knew the ins and outs of technique, improvisation, and the very innerworkings of music.

And what Miles Davis told Herbie on that legendary night was so simple, yet so full of wisdom that it absolutely transformed his playing for the rest of his life.

Starting to get the idea?

No matter how talented you are... there comes a time you need a mentor to reach the next level.

Whether it's a simple shift in technique that frees you up to play 3x faster, or a small parcel of wisdom that changes the way you think about music as a whole, even a few seconds of advice from the right person could be the most valuable thing to your entire drumming career.

That's where I come in. 

I've been playing the drums professionally for 45 years, I've taught over 5,000 students, and I've studied and played with a myriad of legends such as Tony Williams, Mike Clark, Gary Chaffee, and Steve Smith.

 Me, My Wife, and Steve (Journey's Drummer)  

You could imagine, I've had more than my fair share of "Butter Notes" moments myself. And it's only right that I continue the legacy and pass them on to a new generation of musicians.

I was reflecting on all this a couple years ago, and that's when I had a fantastic idea...

What if I took all those golden nuggets of truth I was so lucky to glean from my wonderful mentors, and built detailed, easy-to-follow guides around each of them... designed to quickly bring even a complete novice to an expert level?

And so that's precisely what I did. I spent over three years compiling everything I know about playing the drums into 12 different courses, one for each of those revelations.

These courses serve as step-by-step blueprints to take you from wherever you might be in your musical journey to the skill level required to play alongside famous players, and to move enormous crowds.

Every one of these courses is jam-packed with perspective-shifting insight, conveyed through teaching methods that have proven successful time and time again, shown by the THOUSANDS of students I've already used them on.

And I think you're the perfect candidate to join them.

Now generally each of these courses is sold separately for a monthly fee of $29. 

And for what you're getting, that would be an absolute steal.

Any single one of these 12 courses is MORE than likely to provide you with a "Butter Notes" moment of your own.

But what if you had all 12?

The amount of knowledge being passed down from the great players I've worked with would be immense... you can imagine you would be a COMPLETELY different player after going through all of that!

But come on... who can afford $348 a month?

I mean, it would probably be worth it, but even I recognize that most musicians looking for a program like this don't have that kind of budget.

And so I had another crazy idea...

What if I just bundled all 12 together and sold the whole package for $29 a month?

That's right... for a limited time, you can enroll in my ALL ACCESS course bundle, including ALL 12 COURSES for the price of a single one!

That's hundreds of video lessons, all containing the insight of legendary players.

That'll get you out of your rut.

Now I'm probably off my rocker for pricing it this way, but I figured... why not make it accessible to everyone who needs it?

I want to pass down this knowledge to as many people as possible, after all.

But if I made it completely free, you wouldn't be nearly as compelled to get through it all as this monthly pricing model will have you.

If anything, paying for this will help you learn even more.

So what do you say, time to stop slamming your head into the snare drum and take the next step?

Do you think you have what it takes to play with famous musicians, perform in front of adoring crowds and feature on timeless recordings?

If you've made it this far, I believe that you do.

One of the biggest predictors of success in this field is persistence, after all.
