Jazzing up the Blues
In this workshop Tim will explore ways spruce up your Blues with some fancier chords and jazzy melodies. Learn simple but effective enhancements to basic blues harmony and melodies. Break out of the same old pentatonic licks and generic rhythm patterns and learn those more sophisticated “uptown blues” sounds we all love.
