A Cool Lick I Learned Today
Any musician knows that there are two essentials to playing great music, besides being quite familiar with what you're trying to play and having great tone. Those two things are: 1) building up your repertoire, 2) knowing where to use those things. A musician may know some awesome things to play, but if you don't utilize them at the proper place in a song, they won't be as effective, and might even sound bad. I ran across a lick today from Mike Hedding, that expanded my way of thinking on the banjo. Like most players, I easily fall into the habit of playing the same things over and over. So, I find it refreshing when I discover something new.
