Howdy ya'll. Hope you had a great holiday! Lots of new lessons coming to the School! Hope you enjoy this one. I've gotten a lot of questions about how to improve timing. Well, here it is. Let me know if you have any questions or requests for new lessons. Keep jamming! AE

Thank you for this. I never thought to start the backing track with pinches, then rolls, then melody. I have just been trying to do the backing track with the melody and found that hard. I have also never thought to use one of my keyboard beats to play along with. Your video helped me out a lot!

@Andy Eversole that would be great! Rhythm is one thing very hard for me. I can’t make sense of backtracks or metronomes. I would love any help on how I can learn to use them.

I’ll Fly Away

Hi Andy! Today I started I’ll Fly Away (one of my favorites). I printed out your music notes. Had to break the video up into 2 parts, but any input?
