The program is hosted by Chris Pennie (The Dillinger Escape Plan Coheed & Cambria) who brings his own expertise on these topics to bear ashe introduces each artist. Bonus footage of Chris is also included.Priced affordably and containing a wealth of previously released material from the Hudson Music catalogue the titles in the Ultimate Drum Lessons series have proven to be very popular with drummers. In response to customer comments the clips on these new releases have been chosen specifically for their educational/instructional content (less concert performances and more actual lessons).
