The Clever Way to Learn & Practice Bluegrass Music
Get a whole new perspective on Frosty Morning for the mandolin by studying the fiddle playing of Shawn Lane! Shawn played for the legendary bluegrass band "Blue Highway". This version of Frosty Morning is based on Shawn's playing from an album they made called "Midnight Storm".
Shawn's playing is intricate. He is obviously a great bluegrass fiddler, and he also adds in some Celtic flair on this old fiddle tune which is very appropriate. The version you learn here is simplified for playability and accessibility. Learn the basic version at whatever speed or difficulty you'd like. Then, check out some licks to add variation or learn some more authentic bluegrass vocabulary in the style of Shawn Lane. A lot of his licks we have as an example here feature super quick "grace notes" that require nimble fret hand fingers. Quick pull offs, hammers and slides that are executed right as you play a note. Use the focus feature to listen repeatedly at slow speeds. Close your eyes. Use your ears. This will help you understand the timing for these tough licks and others.
