9 Drum Students Perform Popular Songs in New Studio Recordings | Tooele Utah Drum Lessons

We are excited to share another collection of student drum performances from Drum Lessons by Josh Kastleman. These new studio recordings showcase students performing songs from a wide variety of artists, including Green Day, Metallica, Tool, KISS, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Yellowcard, and Good Charlotte.

One of the things that makes learning the drums exciting is the opportunity to work toward playing real songs. As students progress, they can take on music that matches their interests and challenge themselves with increasingly difficult drum parts.

This latest group of recordings includes everything from songs rated at a difficulty level of 3 out of 10 to challenging performances rated at 9 out of 10.


Aiden Performs Good Charlotte and Red Hot Chili Peppers

Aiden has added two new songs to his growing collection of studio recordings.

He performs "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" by Good Charlotte, followed by "Otherside" by Red Hot Chili Peppers. Both songs provide different musical challenges and give Aiden the opportunity to continue developing his timing, coordination, rhythm, and ability to perform complete songs on the drums.

You can see Aiden's performances and follow his progress on his student page.


Benny Plays Green Day

Benny performs "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day.

With a difficulty rating of 3 out of 10, this song is an example of how students can work toward performing recognizable songs while continuing to build the fundamentals of drumming.

Learning songs that students enjoy can be a great way to stay motivated while developing timing, rhythm, coordination, and confidence behind the drum set.


Isaac Performs a Student-Requested Song

Isaac's latest recording is particularly special.

He performs "Blur" by Riffwood, a song that he specifically requested to learn. Isaac also became the first student to perform this song through Drum Lessons by Josh Kastleman.

Giving students the opportunity to request songs they want to learn is an important part of our approach to drum lessons. When students are excited about the music they're learning, it can give them a meaningful goal to work toward.


Kohler Takes on a Challenging Yellowcard Song

Kohler performs "Ocean Avenue" by Yellowcard, one of the more challenging performances in this collection.

With a difficulty rating of 9 out of 10, this song requires strong timing, coordination, control, and endurance. Taking on more difficult songs is an important part of progressing as a drummer and developing the skills needed to perform more advanced music.


Quentin Plays Metallica

Quentin performs "King Nothing" by Metallica in his latest studio recording.

Learning music from bands students enjoy is one of the ways drum lessons can remain engaging and rewarding. As students learn complete songs, they develop the ability to combine individual drumming techniques into a full musical performance.


Ryker Performs Tool

Ryker takes on "Stinkfist" by Tool, another challenging song rated at 9 out of 10 for difficulty.

Performing more advanced music gives students an opportunity to push their skills and continue improving their timing, coordination, control, and musicality.

As students progress through drum lessons, they can gradually work toward more challenging songs that help them grow as musicians.


Sage Performs Two Student-Requested Songs

Sage has two new studio recordings in this latest group.

First, Sage performs "I Was Made for Lovin' You" by KISS. This was a song Sage specifically requested, and she became the first student to perform this song through Drum Lessons by Josh Kastleman.

Sage also requested "The Zephyr Song" by Red Hot Chili Peppers and became the first student to perform that song as well.


These performances are great examples of how students can choose music that interests them and work toward turning those song choices into complete drum performances.


Learn to Play the Songs You Love

Every student progresses at a different pace, and every student has different musical interests. That's why learning songs can be such an important part of the drumming experience.

Whether a student is just beginning or working toward advanced songs, learning real music can help develop:

  • Timing and rhythm

  • Coordination

  • Drum technique

  • Musicality

  • Confidence

  • Performance skills

  • The ability to play complete songs

These latest studio recordings represent the continued progress of our students and the hard work they put into learning their songs.
