In this week's free Irish guitar lesson from Folk Friend, I'm going to be letting you in on a little secret about backing tunes in minor keys... You can BLEND THE MODES! No longer will you be tied to either building chords from the dorian or aeolian mode... Now you can mix and match for super-cool chromatic effects! I'll be applying this mind boggling technique to my free playalong video for The Cliffs Of Moher which you can watch here:

You can also get a complete pack of 20 Playalong videos with accompanying write-ups of why the chords work, chord diagrams and much more, by becoming a Folk Friend member here:

Of course, the best and most efficient (and fun!) way to learn Irish guitar is one on one with a dedicated professional teacher.
