The Rundown

Published: Fri, 06/09/23

School is out here in Austin, and my kids could not be more delighted. Yesterday morning, Ms. Fretboard was out the door early, the Dauphin was off with friends and I was on my way to the studio, so I stuck my head in my daughter's door to give her the rundown. "I'll be here by myself all morning?" she clarified. "That's what it looks like," I said. There was a thoughtful pause as she gazed into the middle distance. "Guess I'll be throwing a rager," she mused. Then she looked my way again. "Juuust...keeping you in the loop."

This week's Youtube video continues last week's theme of creating jazzier sounds on the blues. In today's lesson, I explain how adding just two intervals – the sixth and the ninth – to the blues scale can help you quickly create more fluid, swing- and jazz-influenced licks over the twelve-bar progression. You can find it at the link below:

Juuust...keeping you in the loop.
