About the drummer

Homer Steinweiss is a premier soul and pop drummer known for his work with Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, Amy Winehouse, and Bruno Mars. He is a master of the "retro-soul" sound that has dominated modern pop production. His work is essential for anyone learning drums with a focus on vintage grooves.

Drummer style

His style is defined by a tight, dry drum sound and a heavy, "swinging" pocket. Playing drums like Steinweiss requires incredible control over hi-hat dynamics and a steady, funk-influenced backbeat. His tracks are popular choices for high-level drum covers and modern soul drum lessons.
