Swing Blues covers a variety of genres from the jazzy influenced Jump and West Coast styles to the Western Swing and Rockabilly styles of the 40’s, 50s and 60’s. Guitarists like T-Bone walker, Bill Jennings, Tiny Grimes, Duke Robillard, Hollywood Fats and Charlie Christian are widely acknowledged for establishing the role of the guitar in this exciting musical genre.

David Blacker’s Rhythm Edition of the Swing Blues Survival Guide guides you through all of the essential concepts and techniques you’ll need command of to play solid rhythm guitar across virtually the entire Swing Blues songbook.

David organized the course into two sections. In the first section, you’ll learn the key concepts that form the theoretical basis for playing swing blues rhythm, while also examining key techniques which are used frequently: Basic Swing Blues Harmony, Advanced Swing Blues Harmony, Half-Steppin’, Comping Study 1 and Comping Study 2.

In the second section, you’ll play your way through 10 specific Performance Studies designed to give you the chordal and rhythmic vocabulary of some of the greatest swing blues guitarists.

David demonstrates all of the Performance Studies over rhythm tracks and then breaks them down by stepping you through the key concepts, techniques and creative approaches that he used in each study.

All of the Performance Studies are tabbed and notated for your practice, reference and study purposes. You’ll also get Guitar Pro files so that you can play, loop and/or slow down the tab and notation as you work through the lessons. Plus, David generously includes all of the rhythm tracks for you to work with on your own.

Grab your guitar and let’s get swingin’ with David Blacker!
