This is often a 16th note style as in Workout from American Popular Piano Level 5: 

Bass plays quarter notes, often an octave apart
Guitar plays a repeated 8th note and two 16th notes figure
Drums play a “pea soup” part on hi-hat (closed hi-hat, open hi-hat) 
Tambourine plays the guitar rhythm
Handclaps and snare off the beat
Bass drum with the bass. 
Bliss!
