Incorporate natural sounds with your CBG music

Posted by Rick McKeon on January 13, 2016 at 10:34pm in Performances, How to Play, Lessons, Concerts

Ever think about incorporating natural sounds into your music? This is my composition "Ten Mile Stomp" arranged for 3-String Cigar Box guitar and Dripping Gutter. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9q-vCyBCdk&feature=youtu.be

    I have one called Birdsong that incorporates the sound of wind sighing through the trees in my front yard, and birds chirping. No vid, just audio. Will hafta upload...

    I'd like a four hour version. Love falling asleep to rain sounds. Rain sounds + slide blues would probably get you a million YouTube hits.

    Nice one, in my case though it would be un-natural sounds from a CBG incorporated into music, damn I so need more practice!!

    Great Idea Rick , love your sound & the video ... Do you live there? .. Can I come and live in your yard? All that cool stuff & rusty vehicles .. Like an episode of "American Pickers" :-D Awesome !

      Thanks for the comment. The shots of old cars were taken in Jerome, AZ at the Gold King mine. I have some other songs and free lessons on my website at https://rickmckeon.com/cbglessons.html  Rick
