So Much Useful Information!
I watched this video right after the companion course (Level 1) and really appreciate the way the lessons are organized and presented. Many of these concepts are new to me, but Jonny offers the tools I need to internalize his methods for accompanying. Now I need to roll up my sleeves and master the exercises!
Just what I needed right now
A good start for learning how to sound good in easier steps (1564 and key of C). These patterns are fun and just sound good.
Easy to follow
Lots of great patterns to internalise and add to your repertoire.
Loved this!
Loved learning the different patterns for pop. I wish you had more!
