Companion summary

Have you ever noticed your feet starting to tap all by themselves when a song plays? When people dance together, they all share the same steady beat so nobody bumps into each other. A drummer's job is to keep that steady heartbeat going for the whole band. When you finish, try clapping along to your favourite song and see if you can keep up without stopping.

Can You Feel It?

Can You Feel It?
