The Clever Way to Learn & Practice Bluegrass Music
Add a bit of the blues into "Walk on Boy" for the guitar. This one adds several tricks and cliches that are used in bluegrass when playing a solo. It starts with the 3 "lead-in" notes in measure 1. This is how many songs are started, not by "counting-off", but by playing those 3 notes with impeccable timing and clarity. The lead in notes also use chromatic pitch movement. That means the pitch is moving 1 fret, or half-step, at a time and in the same direction. This can often lead to the bluesy sound you hear in the lead in notes and in measure 7.
Follow the fingerings in the guitar tablature, and check out those licks to add in variation after you get a hang of the basic arrangement. Practice licks with the focus feature before trying them in the context of the whole song. Remember, listening will help you understand the song or licks before you play them. Practice listening and playing slowly in the beginning.
