Mini Jam #4 - 3 tunes at 75bpm
from Bluegrass Jam Along Hosted by Matt Hutchinson
This week we've got something I haven't done in a while - a mini jam episode. That means we're playing 3 tunes back to back instead of focussing on just one. The idea is it feels a bit more like playing at a jam session. I know some of you use these tracks to work up to attending a jam so hopefully this will help with that! I've gone for the 3 most popular tunes from the first year and a bit of the podcast. They are: Cherokee Shuffle in A (starts at 1:30) Whiskey Before Breakfast in D (starts at 9:32) Turkey in the Straw in G (starts at 16:49) We're doing all three at 75bpm and each tune follows our regular 'jam along' format. That means I play backup and you play lead, then we swap, then we repeat the whole thing another 3 times. The whole jam lasts around 25 minutes. If you want chord charts for these tunes, head to bluegrassjamalong.com, where you'll also find details of how to get in touch. I'd love to hear any feedback on these mini jams so do let me know what you think.
