The 12-Bar Blues -- Why It Sounds So Good

The 12-Bar Blues is one of the most popular chord progressions of all time. But WHY does it sound so good?Show more

In this video, I show you not only how to play it -- but you'll also see the music theory behind this pattern, to really understand why it's so great. We'll look at the chords using the Circle of Fifths and Circle of Thirds to dissect this progression at the atomic level. (And once you know how it works, you can easily play it in any key.)

Songwriting is fun when you can actually see what you're doing. I use the familiar patterns of color to explain music theory so you can write songs.
