Exchange licks in the context of the song you’re learning to hear multiple possibilities for improvisation.
One of the most important parts to learning bluegrass is actually playing the music and experimenting! Play along with real sounding backing tracks to get ready for your next jam.
Start slow or jump right into playing fast with the backing tracks. Use the tempo slider to play at whatever speed suits your skill level.
Whether you’re finding your first chords or you’ve been playing for years, we’ve got you covered with an extensive library of bluegrass music for you to learn and jam along with.
Switch licks, hide notes, and jam with backing tracks - these are just a few of the revolutionary ways to learn music with Tunefox.
Practice at home or on the go! Tunefox will auto-save your progress and preferences.
Every song comes with multiple arrangements so you always have something new to learn. Use the lick switcher to create a personalised solo and then practice with real-sounding backing tracks. Creative learning at it's best!

“What a brilliant learning system to enable a 73 year old to play banjo, this app has brought me a new lease on life.”
Tunefoxer
“I’ve been an early user of TuneFox and I love the app and the ease with which I can learn new songs, either solely by ear or with some of the tools (ease of isolating measures, hidden notes, ability to switch in different licks, Scruggs/melodic and backup playing styles). With TuneFox, I’ve stretched myself like never before.”
