Western Swing Masterclass with Ray Benson
In the vast ocean of country music, few have steered their ships as deftly as Ray Benson, the towering frontman and bandleader of the iconic Western swing ensemble Asleep At The Wheel. With a career spanning more than half a century, Benson and his band have safeguarded the rich traditions of Western swing for generations to come.
We're thrilled to welcome Ray Benson to the family with this Free Wheelin' interactive video masterclass. Ray dives deep into Western and Jump Swing guitar, generously sharing his lead and rhythm guitar approaches, key insights and concepts, and thoroughly enlightening stories from the road.
”After five decades of touring and recording with Asleep at the Wheel, I can tell you first hand - music is a learning journey that never ends.
Every tune and every turn on the journey feeds your musicianship and keeps your fingers dancing. I'm excited for this opportunity to pass on what I've learned on my own 'free wheelin' journey.
We'll dive deep into Western and Jump Swing guitar. I'll also share many of my influences and a few stories from the road that helped shape my playing, writing, and performing.”
Key lessons include: Chord Voicings, Flatpicking Tricks, Inversion Chords, Western Swing Rhythm, Walking Bass Lines, Finger Picking and Alternating Bass, Early Influences, Eldin Shamblin, Tic Tac Rhythm, Chords are Everything, Being a Band Leader, Finding Fingerpicking, How Chords Relate to Soloing, Improving What You Do Not Do Well, Playing Double Stop Lines, Gear and Guitars
Ray demonstrates all of the techniques and concepts shared in the masterclass over backing tracks that cover the full range of swing feels and tempos: After You Have Yawned, Faded Love, Route 6-T-6, Tulsa, Lincoln, Milk Cow, My House, Country Funky Johny Bush, and Slow Country
You'll have TrueFire's advanced learning tools at your fingertips to personalize your workspace and learn at your own pace.
The performances are tabbed, notated, and synced to the video with looping and slow-motion controls. Backing tracks, Guitar Pro files, printable tab and notation are also included.
Grab your guitar, and let's dig in with Ray Benson!
