"Need You Now" - Lady Antebellum

Hello Fretlight Players - we've really got something special for you this week!

This week's FREE video features Dave Haywood (guitarist from the band Lady Antebellum) teaching you how to play the chords for their hit song "Need You Now". Dave begins the video by showing you the basic chords shapes and techniques that are used in each section of the song, and then he strums through the ENTIRE TUNE. What better way to learn a song than from the artist themselves! The best part is that you can SLOW DOWN the video and work on each section at your own pace until you can get up to full speed and strum along with Dave through the entire song.

"Bring It On Home" - Led Zeppelin

Hello Fretlight Players - here is this week's FREE "Fretlight Video Riff"!

This week's Video features the main riff from "Bring In On Home" by Led Zeppelin. When Jimmy Page recorded this song, he used the process of "overdubbing" in the recording studio to add several different layers to the riff. Once he had recorded the main riff, he added two additional "harmony" guitar parts to create the effect of three different guitars all playing simultaneously. This week's Video shows you how to play each of those three parts. This really allows you to hear the effect that "overdubbing" creates. From a technique perspective, this riff includes lots of hammer ons, bends, and vibrato, so don't forget to SLOW DOWN the video and LOOP IT until you can get each part of the riff up to full speed.

"Back In Black" - AC/DC

Hello Fretlight Players - here is this week's FREE "Fretlight Video Riff"!

This week's Video features one of my all-time favorite guitar riffs, which is the intro section from the classic AC/DC song "Back In Black". This is a great part that combines some Rhythm guitar sections (with chords) along with some Lead guitar sections (played with single notes and scales). This riff also includes the 'style elements' of bending and sliding, and really illustrates the importance of developing BOTH aspects of your playing: Harmony and chords along with Melody and scales. Remember that you can SLOW DOWN the video and LOOP IT until you can get the riff up to speed.
