Carolyn Potts

United States

I picked up the sticks and thought back to all the times I walked passed the drums and knew one day I would play. And I’ve been playing since May, 2018.

I started playing drums in church, and now sit in with a local band or two.

Playing the song ‘Come As You Are’ allowed me to step outside my comfort zone by working on both beat and tempo. It’s still a work in progress for me but I’ve enjoyed the challenge thus far.

Hope you enjoy it!

    Keep it up sister. Playing drums is just plain therapeutic besides the joy it brings.
    God bless you !,

    I remember you from another year. I can see you have been practicing and are really confident in your entry. We’re always a “work in progress.” After I recorded I immediately thought of 3 “mistakes” I got myself out of. But my instructor of 12 years states there are no mistakes, just a creative ways of on-the-spot changes. Liked your smile at the end. Whew….. its over.
