  • Mini-Episode: the Wrong Chords and a non-Harmony
    May 7 2017

    If you listened to Playing Along with Bobbo Byrnes, you heard us make a couple of mistakes. We played chords out of order and I attempted a harmony but ended up just singing the same notes and Bobbo. In this mini-episode, I pick apart those mistakes and talk about why we made them and what we can learn from them. I hope you enjoy.

    Find Bobbo and The Fallen Stars at: thefallenstars.com

    The song we play is "I May Never Know" from his excellent Motel Americana album available on their website.
