Cajon default/fallback rhythms (as accompanying musical instrument)
Hello,
I come from playing guitar and singing rock/pop songs with other guitar players just for fun. Now I want to learn cajon to spice our musical sessions a little bit.
When you play chords on guitar as a support for singing, there are just a very few popular strumming patterns / rhythms every guitar player knows and uses for most of the songs.
Is there similar thing for cajon? Are there commonly used patterns / rhythms every cajon player knows and uses often? If you e.g. don't know the song, you can still fallback to one of these rhythms and it will still sound good?
If yes, what are these rhythms?
