Welcome to the latest episode of the ArtistWorks Music Roundtable podcast! In this new installment, our Director of Content and Production, Marcus Luscombe, is joined by the latest addition to the ArtistWorks faculty, world-renowned acoustic guitarist Andy McKee, and fellow fingerstyle guitar virtuoso and TrueFire and JamPlay instructor, Trevor Gordon Hall.

We are excited to announce the availability of four brand new courses designed to provide all the instruction and resources you need to become a more complete musician.

In the ArtistWorks Music Roundtable podcast series, members of the ArtistWorks faculty are joined by notable musical guests to discuss topics on anything and everything music. Subjects ranging from touring and memorable moments on the road to recording, songwriting, musicianship, music theory, technique, and more will be addressed. Nothing is off-limits, and all musical themes are fair game!

As you continue to progress on the jazz drums, one of the most important performance elements on which to focus your efforts is the way you add variety to and embellish your playing patterns. Keeping your improvisations, grooves, and fills feeling fresh is a critical part of retaining the attention of your fellow musicians and listeners, and is an important strategy to make continuous improvements on the drum kit and level up your skills.
