Midnight On The Water - B Section Single String

About

This is a 60 minute Zoom workshop from 6-6-24. While learning the B section to this beautiful song we also focused on strategies for playing in tune, controlling bar pressure, fine tuning your Dobro, and capturing beautiful tone. My goal is to guide you through my process for developing these skills while learning one of my favorite tunes. *One of my favorite tunes to play is Benny Thomasson's Midnight On The Water. It's a beautifully simple melody in the key of D. I've learned so much from playing this tune over the years. When I first learned it, I challenged myself to play the whole song on one string, and make it sound good! I learned a lot about bar control, and how to utilize the "in-between slides". In this series we will learn Midnight On The Water in multiple positions, spanning 3 octaves. I'll share my phrasing ideas from lyrical single string lines, to thick chordal phrase, and crisp hammer-on and pull-off triplets, giving you the the tools to play three unique versions of this gorgeous melody spanning the entire fretboard.
