Drummer Derrick McKenzie of Jazz funk legends Jamiroquai dropped in with band members Paul Turner and Rob Harris to show students how to work in and execute an effective rhythm section. After wowing the audience with their trademark sound, they answered questions from a number of students before taking part in a much appreciated signing session. Thanks guys and see you again soon!
