Steve of the Wire Daisies gives you a great beginner drum tutorial here, taking you through each step patiently. The same drum beat loops throughout the entire song, so it serves as a useful exercise for keeping your playing tight and in time. Steve is very helpful when it comes to the importance of the rhythm and timing of the track, breaking it all down for you to the separate beats; kick, snare and high hats. The most technical part are the 16 beat per bar high hat hits , which once practiced, will improve your agility in the hand and wrist.

Title
Steve from Wire Daisies takes you through the relaxed acoustic song "Never Meant To Hurt You". In the lesson Steve demonstrates how he built the drum part up throughout the song to make the crescendo before the final chorus all the more powerful. The techniques are also quite interesting - he explains the method behind a 'snare drag', which is where he lets the drum stick bounce several times across the snare drum to create the effect of a small drum roll.
