Slash Chords: What They Are & How to Use Them
Welcome back to another exciting episode of Chords & Coffee, the weekly show where we dive deep into all things music with your host, Nate White!
"I feel like a lot of people are stuck in their heads, and a lot of the time it’s hard to make a song move or tell a story without making it feel too dense. Sometimes it's the smallest thing—just one note—that can really open it up." - Jacob Collier
This is exactly what we're exploring this week with slash chords! They're the secret ingredient for adding new energy and movement to your playing. By changing just one note—the bass note—you can transform a static chord into something that pushes the harmony forward, creating a richer, more dynamic sound. It's like adding a new spice to a familiar recipe that makes every bite more flavorful. Watch the full lesson to learn how to add more flavor and movement to your music! 🎸 ☕️
