Playing backup rhythm can sometimes become blah for the for the mandolin player. #Let’s face it—chucking 1,4,5 chords doesn’t leave a lot for artistic expression. #Sure you can alter the beat, but that only goes so far. #Below is a walking chord progression for Soldier’s Joy (in “D” of course). #Using these chords with altered beats can add so much fun. #Especially when the bass is absent. #
Have Fun!!!
