”A single blues phrase can express power, romance, weariness, optimism, joy, despair - the whole range of human feelings.

How do you express desire? Frustration? Maintain an interesting musical conversation? Get your point across clearly? Fill the room with energy? Handle challenging music in a direct, bluesy way? Carry blues feels into other styles?

Start with what you want the listener to feel, and then line up the techniques and vocabulary to express it. I’ll show you how to craft solos by starting with the feelings that inspire you and then working backward to develop the musical tools that you’ll need to communicate them.
