PICKING HAND GRIMOIRIUM by Byron Santo Is a Very Useful Working Tool for the Guitarist to Develop New Melodic Ideas and Compositional Insights and Directions
c For 4, 5, 6 & 7–String Instruments Forward " I believe that THE PICKING HAND GRIMOIRIUM by Byron Santo is a very useful working tool for the guitarist to develop new melodic ideas and compositional insights and directions. It is an important conceptual contribution which respects the users intelligence and creativity and allows one the freedom to remain oneself musically while exploring unheard of possibilities for the guitar." ----NEY MELLO Preface The Picking Hand Grimoirium provides in one volume, the necessary exercises for the development of the picking hand for string instrumentalist of 4, 5, 6 or 7 string instruments. The exercises focus on the “micro” movements of the picking hand through permutations of strings and notes-per-strings. The musician can isolate, and then develop one specific picking hand movement with the exerecises. By using this method, it insures complete picking hand development before adding the fretting hand. Since the exercises are “micro” picking hand movements only, detailed attention can be placed on technique, tempo, rhythm, dynamics and consistent string attack for optimum picking hand development. The exercises can and should be applied to ALL picking techniques that the musician chooses in their form of expression such as free strokes, rest strokes, alternate picking, economy picking, hybrid picking, finger picking, tremolos, slapping, double thumping, plucking, etc. As the musician progresses through the various exercises, new picking patterns will be encountered that could aid the musician in composing new and unique ideas. The permutations in the Picking Hand Grimoirium were created by computer program developed by the author. This insures that ALL permutations of strings and notes-per-strings are included. -

Before you can free the music in yourself, you need to clear the roadblock that is holding you back from expressing the music freely. Many guitar students struggle with their freedom of expression when playing blues solos, mainly because they believe that ‘blues is an easy style’ and because of this they never focus on blues guitar technique. This mistake causes the student to only get partial results when improvising and lays also at the root of why many struggle to play blues guitar solos effortless. How To Take Your Mind Of Guitar Technique Guitar technique should be practiced in order to take your mind of technique. Once you focused on the right exercises then you will find yourself in a place where you don’t have to actively think about technique anymore (even when playing the most challenging passages, licks, riffs or solos). -
Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop for Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media
Dan Hicks’ Caucasian Hip-Hop For Hicksters Published February 19, 2015 | Copyright @2015 Straight Ahead Media Author: Steve Roby Showdate : Feb. 18, 2015 Performance Venue : Yoshi’s Oakland Bay Area legend Dan Hicks performed to a sold-out crowd at Yoshi’s on Wednesday. The audience was made up of his loyal fans (Hicksters) who probably first heard his music on KSAN, Jive 95, back in 1969. At age 11, Hicks started out as a drummer, and was heavily influenced by jazz and Dixieland music, often playing dances at the VFW. During the folk revival of the ‘60s, he picked up a guitar, and would go to hootenannies while attending San Francisco State. Hicks began writing songs, an eclectic mix of Western swing, folk, jazz, and blues, and eventually formed Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks. His offbeat humor filtered its way into his stage act. Today, with tongue firmly planted in cheek, Hicks sums up his special genre as “Caucasian hip-hop.” Over four decades later, Hicks still delivers a unique performance, and Wednesday’s show was jammed with many great moments. One of the evenings highlights was the classic “I Scare Myself,” which Hicks is still unclear if it’s a love song when he wrote it back in 1969. “I was either in love, or I’d just eaten a big hashish brownie,” recalled Hicks. Adding to the song’s paranoia theme, back-up singers Daria and Roberta Donnay dawned dark shades while Benito Cortez played a chilling violin solo complete with creepy horror movie sound effects. -
