Blues Rhythm Shell Voicings 2

Description

In this tutorial we'll explore some more stripped down, precision chords that use a minimum number of notes for a maximum impact or shell voicings as they’re often called. Not only are the chords boiled down to the essence, the movement between the I, IV and V chord voicings is also optimized, so each of the notes within the chords move as little as possible. This gives our rhythm playing a very deliberate and mature sound. There is some theory involved in this, but you don’t have to understand the theory to use this approach - just use your ears to determine how little you can get away with playing.
