I hope this post finds you well and ready for some musical inspiration.
I want to give you a heads-up about the latest episode of the Acoustic Asylum podcast.
This is all about giving you some valuable insights for playing guitar in the icy cold winter months.
In this episode, I’ll take you through a little warm-up process.
I use the warm-up myself as we go through the podcast…
Taking my fingers from icy cold to getting ready to play.
Here’s a sneak peek into what you can expect:
Why it’s essential to steer clear of the dreaded “death grip” during the winter months, and how it can impact your playing.
Uncover a crucial tip for maintaining fluidity in your playing by focusing on your non-playing fingers.
Get valuable fingerpicking tips and learn how to eliminate the “shy tone” that might be holding you back without you even realising it
Bonus tips, including “The Butterfly Touch,” a simple one-chord ear training test, a fantastic rhythm exercise, and a ii-V-I jazz chord progression
Plus, how the Gatekeeper has been giving out ‘pro bono’ guitar lessons as he tries to fill up the cells of his Acoustic Asylum this Christmas.
It’s a bit zany as one reviewer said recently… but if you like light-hearted stuff while getting instantly applicable guitar advice, then I think you will enjoy it.
