Big Sciota in G at 2 tempos - 75 bpm & 85 bpm

Big Sciota in G at 2 tempos - 75 bpm & 85 bpm

Author: Matt Hutchinson October 25, 2023 Duration: 15:40

This week we're playing another tune back to back at two different speeds  - once at 75 bpm then again at 85. We're doing Big Sciota and we're in the key of G.

We're using the jam along format - that means I'm kicking off playing backup and you're on the tune, then we swap and go round 4 times. Then, after a quick pause, we do the whole thing again at 85 bpm.

Don't forget to grab a chord sheet if you need one from bluegrassjamalong.com

Happy picking!
Matt
