East Tennessee Blues (C 75 bpm) - Performance

East Tennessee Blues (C 75 bpm) - Performance

Author: Matt Hutchinson September 15, 2021 Duration: 4:12

This week we're jamming along to the classic tune East Tennessee Blues. This is a performance track, rather than a backing track. It's me playing both tune and backup so you've got a reference to listen to if you're new to the tune, or just want to be able to listen a few times to the whole thing.

Don't forget to check out the other three episodes when you're done and jam along!

If you want a chord chart (or just want to find out more or get in touch),  head to bluegrassjamalong.com
