I had so much fun playing this excellent Texas Blues full of chromatic notes, Travis picking technique, and shuffle rhythm.
Just like Jazz music, the Blues can digest chromatic notes easily. The dominant 7th chords can take a lot of different scales, such as the major and minor Pentatonic, as well as the Blues Pentatonic.
Because of that, it’s easy to add chromatic phrases that sound really good and in style. I mean, try to apply the same chromatisms to a Pop chord progression! They would sound horrible.
In this guitar lesson, I am going to show you how to play a fingerstyle Blues in G stuffed with a bunch of killing chromatic phrases that will add a lot of color and style to the Blues.
I called it Texas Blues because it reminds me of the music you would listen to in a Texas Bar back in 1900.
Join me in this lesson and learn how to play this awesome Texas Blues in G. Enjoy this lesson!
