Hello to all!
In our latest Guitar Noise Podcast, we’ll take a look at getting comfortable with strumming with an eye toward being able to sing and play at the same time. We start with a new song, the iconic “Will the Circle Be Unbroken,” and we even have a cheat sheet for you:

We’ll spend most of this podcast getting good at a couple of strumming patterns so that we can tackle it in earnest next week.
As always, I’ll be walking you through each step, so come on along and join in the fun. And, again as always, please let us know what you think.
Peace

Hi Mark
I promise to not say that anymore! I keep jinxing myself so it’s probably best to just say “see you next time!”
Thanks for your kind words as well as your understanding and patience.
Peace

Thank you very much. I had no idea how tough it would be to sing and play at the same time. I have a new appreciation for music artists!!!
