Yeah that's probably not super high on the degree of difficulty scale but very nicely played

Just discovered Arianna Powell (apparently Halsey's guitarist, among other things):

He has a lovely record out right now, does not seem to have caught fire yet (<1000 play counts on spotify). He's only in his early 20s though and I have a feeling he will become a mainstay of the whole Americana/Bluegrass circuit if he sticks it out.

Billy Strings' solo in this is downright psychotic

Def gonna watch that later. I've spent a couple years now learning bluegrass flatpicking and I've been thinking I'd like to add country picking to my skillset.

i didn't realize this thread was on IMM; wish i would've posted the video on ILM. because it's just as interesting to non-players, i think, and was a blast to watch even for somebody not trying to master the history of 20th cen. electric guitar

budo jeru, Wednesday, 7 June 2023 03:01 (ten months ago) link

sorry, electric guitar in country music
