How to play it
Why this exercise

Combines songs and improvising, applying everything you have worked on in a real musical context, with no safety net.

  1. 15 minutes playing full songs (the whole structure, don't stop when you slip up).
  2. 15 minutes improvising in the same key, or over a backing track.
  3. Keep your foot tapping on beats 2 and 4 the whole time.
  4. Connect the end of a solo into the next verse, with no gaps.
  5. If you lose the groove, play only long notes (half notes) until you find it again.
Today's tip

Play full songs or improvise, don't lose the groove.
