In this episode I talk about a particular aspect of playing guitar grooves (specially the Brazilian grooves): tight, short figured and rhythmically groovy vs harmonic lush, open string/harmony oriented. These two approaches can be mixed up in a song or applied separately according to the scenario - Solo vs ensemble, 2 harmony instruments together, etc etc. Different settings will call for a specific approach, but it often suggests a mix of both, according to the song structure and character.

Half Step Open Strings - what does that man? In this episode I show this cool trick you can do on guitar, taking advantage of the way the open strings are tuned - where you can achieve chromatic half steps using open strings. That allow us to play more open string chords on unusual keys and also help with harmonic progressions where voices can be maintained as the chord moves to the next. Enjoy!
