Hi Michael - I've just seen this wonderful performance on the Jools Holland show. I've not seen Rodrigo y Gabriela before, but I will certainly be looking out for more of their music. They obviously have a great rapport - the body language is brilliant. He is a man who obviously knows his triads inside out - and her flamenco influenced rhythm style is hypnotic to watch. I love these guys. It would be great to hear your insight on their styles and techniques.

The lads of Polyphia doing a badass playthrough of Chimera off the new album. Sweet sweet 8-string action along with the nylon.

These exercises have really helped me. Getting the hang of using triads. Thanks, Michael.

Exhilarating performance of "Scoundrel Days" from the 1986 sophomore album, live from the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert.

Amazing when Tim start repeating one note and the audience catches on to it and getting louder and louder. Gives me the chills, in a good way.

Seriously wish I was there for the filming of this video!! What a trip. White Rabbit bluegrass style. Molly Tuttle. Need we say more?

I don't have much knowledge of off-beat or syncopated strumming patterns, but here's something simple.
