- Hannah Welton thinks every drummer should have these 10 funk beats in their arsenal.
You may already know these songs, but have you tried learning them on drums? As the former Prince drummer says, funk has a certain irresistible feel. It emerged during a time in history with political hardships and tension, and you can hear how artists like James Brown used the musical style to make a statement and an impact we can still feel decades later.

Funk has a certain irresistible feel right?!🕺🏻💃🏻 Who’s your favorite funk drummer?

Garibaldi does it for me. Right now I play in a country, beach, pop cover band but I sure do miss Cameo, The Bar Kays, Sly, The Crusaders, Donald Byrd and the Blackbirds, Morris Day, James Brown, obviously Tower of Power, Superstrut by Eumir Deodato and a host of others. As usual, I am the odd one out among my old age peer group but I was the odd one as a teen too. One minute it was Locomotive Breath by Tull and the next it was Wes Montgomery, Pat Metheny, Weather Report, Marshall Tucker, Santana, Pat Martino, ABB, etc. And yet, the most FUN I ever had playing was funk. When at home, that is what I turn to when I want to feel good about being an old ass drummer.
Zigaboo Modeliste! His groove on "Cissy Strut" from The Meters is the ground zero of funkyness, at least in my humble opinion.
Purdie every time!
My guy...Brad Wilk (Rage against the machine...Sound garden...Audioslave) has me either jamming to funk or rocking out to metal...I can't tell, but who the hell cares!
Hannah Welton 💋
Yes, this is excellent. Great drummer, great breakdown, nice presentation. Keep making these videos please!
Thank you! Glad you're digging the videos 🙏🤘
Hannah is so great! You can tell she loves drumming from the bottom of her heart ❤
Thank you for this, makes me wanna groove 🎶
Finally get Mike Clark on the show!
Oh yes!!!
I watched him live a few years ago. Big fan. Better get him on it soon.
Excellent observation with the crashes, Hannah, and thank you for shining light on the intricacies of FUNK. Again the Drumeo kits sound amazing.
I've been playing in a country and classic rock band for the past couple of years. I'm looking forward to making a funk playlist and digging into these grooves this weekend! Thanks.
Thank you so very much for sharing this pattern! It seems that most of the patterns that you share really fit the the way I strive to play! I find myself using licks you have shared YEARS ago.
Great work. thank you Hannah! Drumeo, we want more of these!
That was fun!! Great grooves. Love your energy.
Awesome groove selection and the drummer killed it, wow!
Wow. Hannah is the first person I've ever seen get the hi-hat feel right on Funky Drummer.
she definitely has an incredibly precise ear, a lot of these grooves i never even heard half the intricacies
You can tell how much she loves this stuff, a lot of passion for it. I'd like to see her and DC go thru all of these together would be amazing.
Great lesson, Hannah!
It has help me to broaden my funk songs knowledge with songs that someone may don’t know or forgot
Hannah those grooves!
You explain and play them beats so smooth!
Thanks funky Hannah!
Hannah, this is awsome, thank you & drumeo‼️❤
Great lesson, thank you! More from Hannah!!!
And I got a fever... More Larnell!!!
1.
8:05 "The sweet spot between not to straight and not too swung"
I seriously need a whole video about that! (Also in other beats.)
2.
11:39 Playing slightly sloppy makes it funky.
Interesting! Again, I'd like to hear this demonstrated (perfect & rigid vs. sloppy & funky)
3.
15:09 Once you've got the basic groove, you can change up the pattern from time to time.
That's interesting to me.
Great video learned a lot from these grooves you played
Shake Every Think You Got
Maceo Parker 🎺🎷🎶🎹😎😍
Amazing! Thanks for showing us these funky grooves! When you said "you don't necessary need to be in the funk genre to be funky" immediately I recall a song from Led Zeppelin: The Crunge, amazing funk from a bunch of rockstars 🙂
Great example. I love when they would insert The Crunge in one of their live medleys (Dazed & Confused, I think).
These classic beats are on fire. She is one of my favorite drummer who got me into incorporating funk beats and apply it to metal music. I had my neighbors called me a funky death metal blast beater. I just like to combine death metal drum stuff and funk beats. Rick Latham and Hannah is my funk drum idol. All these details she give and how it plays were incredible and easy to understand and play. It’s fun. Not saying it’s pretty easy or anything. It takes time to learn some parts. I also love using funk beat to play anime themed songs or Japanese pop music besides blast beating and speeding things up just for musical taste and experimentation. Literally called my own drumming style Extreme Technical funking death metal.
Thank you for the lesson. Well done! difficult to chose only 10 grooves. My favorite is Cissy Strut🙂
Love Hannah's drumming at Montreux 2013 with Prince!
Thank you drumeo grat video so helpful and the drummer is very clear
So glad to see you getting back into the spotlight
"Allow it to get a little sloppy" I love this approach and this is what i miss in nowadays music. Keep it up Hannah , from a not so talented drummbrother !!!!
Great drummer, great grooves. Also: Can we cherish, how fantastic this drum kit sounds here?
"Use me" us such a classic groove... Great lesson!
BEST funk instruction on the internet!
I would LOVE breakdown and lengthy lecture on
IN TIME by Sly!!!!!
Great lesson and song selection. I'd have added my personal favorite, Give Up or Turnit a Loose
Appreciate your insight! Feel like I've learned a lot here.
thanks hannah welton !! great groove and song bill winters love it..and you put me on digging for fav tracks to play on prince albums Hit and run 😎👍
Excellent lesson! "Cissy Strut" would have been a great addition here, it's one of the funkiest grooves ever recorded.
Meters. That's what I'm talking about
Also Bernard Purdy shuffle
Spot on, the hi hat and subtle bass drum parts he plays on Cissy Strut is fantastic. Its damn near impossible to emulate.
Yeah, criminal Cissy Strut ain’t on the list. Now I gotta see if ANY Zig grooves are in this list.
@@GM-cd3rs NOTHING is impossible to emulate!
Flashlight? What???? I LOVE this woman!!!!!! Awesome video!!!
Who's got the funk? She's got the funk! Who's go the funk? Hannah's got the funk! Another great vid!
We've got Drumeo,we've got the funk!
Cheers guys.
Hats off to you.
Awesome feel. She really gets it.
Nicely curated.

Great job! Thx
Great job!
Wow amazing all of drumeo team
I like her drum sound. Very clean
Muito bom vemos vários ritmos que podemos aprender e a partitura mostrando fica massa parabéns
Thank you.
Great video! You've got me cranked up to get back on the throne and funk out! I've been concentrating more on guitar and piano lately, but this video is getting me back on my kit!
Any day we can steal somebody back to the drums is a good day 😆
Sou Apaixonado por música americana,funk soul, jazz🔥🔥
I'd love to hear and see more disco-funk grooves from the likes of Chic...Rick James....EW&F....Gap Band...SOS band.....Brothers Johnson.....Patrice Rushen....Change.....and many many others.
Funk grooves seem to come natural to me. I don’t usually get the chance to play them, and this excellent video has made me want to do it more.
Another fun video with Hannah, a great drummer with wonderful, positive energy! 😊👍 My only criticism: Rim clicks (a.k.a. cross stick) are _not_ the same thing as rim shots! 😉
Sweet!!!
Hermosa, con actitud, y muy clara nuestra amiga Hannah!! Gracias amigos de Drumeo por lecciones imperdibles. Fuerte abrazo!! ❤️🇨🇴
Eine schöne Auswahl für Funk-Freunde oder allgemein zur Weiterbildung 😀👍👍👍🥁🤘
Cissy strut is easily my all time favourite funk groove.
🥁❤️Hannah Welton❤️🥁
I love her! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
very good
This was highly entertaining lol😂
Sou brasileiro, e apaixonado por pela música americana, você toca muito 🔥🔥🔥
I like her teaching style
Killer tracks
I love the use of the swing kik.
Requesting 'Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose', or about a dozen other James Brown tracks. Prince has countless ones such as Sexy Dancer. The drum beat is Superstition needs to be on any funk list. We can go on for a long time. This lady drummer is excellent.
Such a cool drummer
Some awesome choices here. Would love to see Chameleon from Herbie Hancock off Headhunters added to this! The great Harvey Mason
Good choices and glad you included Morris Day and the Time. Do think you should have included Squib Cakes by Tower of Power with David Garibaldi. I might be an old white dude but Garibaldi is an idol to me.
Garibaldi is funk royalty 😍
What is hip would have been good too. Garibaldi is the Funk master.
great ! vive le funk
Some of my favorite funk songs are "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder, "Tell Me Something Good" by Rufus/Chaka Khan, "Fire" by the Ohio Players, and "Blame It on the Boogie" by the Jackson Five!
Love you Hannah
awesome... kinda surprised Dance To The Music by Sly isn't on here instead of Thank You. also would have liked to have seen Prince's Kiss on here. but everyone is gonna have an opinion LOL
Favorite funk song: Parliament Funkadelic - Bring The Funk
Cool
My cheeks are sore from stank-faceing, so nice!
🔥👌
Her drumkit is all purple like Prince.
Those one handed 16th notes on the hi-hat (Funky Drummer) When i get there my work will be done....Vallhalla i am coming :)
Funk Yeah!
"Amen, Brother" by The Winstons is the most sampled funky beat.
Great funky stuff! But where are iconic grooves from The Meters (Cissy Strut) & Tower Of Power (What is hip/Soul Vaccination/The Skunk, The Goose, And The Fly)?
Wow
A melhor uhuuuuuu
I had the experience of doing a few events with Hannah. She's such a positive light. Full of passion. Tons of faith. Totally 100% professional. She always wowed the crowd. We knew she'd hit the big time. And she hit huge! Definitely one of my biggest influences. Her motto: "Peace. Love & Drums!". Exactly!
PLEASE don't forget to go back & mention (credit) the names of the drummers who played on these monumental Funk recordings. The contemporaries in the Classic Rock world are QUICK & consistent in crediting & honoring Niel Peart (Rush), John Bonham (Led Zeppelin), Stewart Copeland (The Police), Alex Van Halen (Van Halen), Steve Smith (Journey) Terry Bozzio (Missing Persons, Frank Zappa), Tommy Allridge (Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne), Ringo Starr (The Beatles), etc., etc when the Classic Rock genre of drumming is mentioned. The exact same code of honor & respect should be given to Clyde Stubblefield & Jabo Starks (James Brown), Zigaboo Modeste (The Meters), Lanise Hughes (Rick James), "Diamond" (The Ohio Players), Walter Orange (The Commodores), Tyrone Lampkin (Parliament-Funkadelic), Micheal B. & John Blackwell (Prince), Ricky Lawson (studio sessions), "Jellybean" Johnson (The Time) & all other Funk/R&B/Soul drummers who got lost in the shadows of The Great Dennis Chambers & The Great Bernard Purdie! PLEASE do a second video giving name recognition/credits to these drummers.
In addition, some classic funk jams that I would like to see covered by Hannah
"Lady Cab Driver" - Prince
"Skin Tight" - The Ohio Players
"Love Rollercoaster" - The Ohio Players
"Flirt" - Cameo
"Shake & Dance With Me" - Confunkshun
"Dance Floor" - Roger Troutman & Zapp
"Mary Jane" - Rick James
"Cut The Cake" - The Average White Band
"School Boy Crush" - The Average White Band
"Slippin Into Darkness" - WAR
"Big Payback" - James Brown
"Knee Deep" - Funkadelic
"Brick House" - The Commodores
"Cissy Strut" - The Meters
"Dancing Machine" - The Jackson 5
"Le Freak" (Freak Out) - Chic
*ALL great Funk throwback selections with serious grooves & pockets for drummers who seriously want to study Funk rhythms.

Thanjs for the presentation but who were the drummers?
Jungle boogie of course :)
Beautiful presentation by a talented drummer. Around 13:10, the last bar, the triplet 8th-notes should have a dot after the first. That makes it 6 16ths = 3 8th-notes. As notated now, it has only 5 16th-notes.
I think the beaming is just misleading. The first 2 notes form one sixteenth triplet (one eighth which takes up two thirds of a sixteenth triplet, plus the last sixteenth triplet note). This takes up the first eighth note of beat 3. Then the last note of that clump is the second eighth note of beat 3.
The first note is an 8th note triplet, with the bass drum playing the 3rd and 4th 16th note triplets, so that’s not the problem. The note on the fourth partial is held for 3 16th note triplets, so if anything it should be the last one being dotted. The problem though, is that having one be dotted and not the other would be more confusing, especially when sightreading, and having either of them dotted would be more confusing because your hands are playing the same rhythm they have been the whole time. Technically you’re right the notation could be considered rhythmically incorrect, but it’s easier to read than it would be if it was “rhythmically correct”, and being easier to read is a lot more important. Drumset notation is weird, but in this case, we all understand what it’s trying to tell us, so it’s doing it’s job.

Funky time
