Hey y'all!

Here's a real fun video I got to shoot at Sweetwater Gearfest! Earlier in the day, I heard my buddy Corey Congilio blazing over some blues changes while making one of his own videos, and I knew I had to try and snag some of his secrets! In this lesson, Corey shows us how we can all spice up our blues playing by adding in arpeggios and targeting chord tones, rather than just playing the same minor pentatonic licks over the entire progression. He's got some really rad ideas you can use to add a higher price tag to your licks at the next blues jam, so tune in and take notes!

Here in a second, I'm gonna share the Patreon-only bonus post to go along with this one. It's an easy path to adding arpeggios into your playing, no matter what style it is you're doing! PLUS it's got a couple handy charts AND a funky blues backing track I made to go along with it. Stay tuned!!!
