What a generous soul you are, Matt Heaton.

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Matt has great ideas! Glad whenever he can share a few thoughts with folks about juicy/creative chordal approaches....

[@karlcolon5299]

Completely lovely stuff!

[@Bittoo25b]

I played splendid isolation with open G variation, F over A and Bb, that was funky asf, grt lesson

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Nice. Great tune. Lot of possibilities there. And yeah, lots of Brendan McGlinchey tunes are funky af.

[@EastboundStudios]

Good stuff, thanks for sharing. I play Paddy on the Turnpike With Gm and F. Looking forward to messing around with these voicings on that one

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Wonderful! Let us know how it goes.

[@kaushalsuvarna5156]

Wonderful lesson

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Happy that this is useful for you!

[@Pennyrdi1]

I really like your teaching. Is there a way to learn more directly from you online?

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Matt is a great teacher. He'll be at a few in-person events this summer (Acadia Trad Week, Goderich Celtic Roots Festival, O'Flaherty Retreat). And he's always showing some great ideas during our monthly Virtual Guided Session (third Saturday of the month livestream, 2pm Boston time). If you have specific tutorials you're hoping for, we can try to get a few new Matt vids up!

[@FaeMiller-w5f]

Very helpful. Some more condensed, or perhaps indexed on the description videos might make these more broadly accessible. Separating out the videos where you need to describe fingerings step by step versus some where you more expediently go through the options for those comfortable with the inversions and fingerings would help cut down the length.

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Good ideas! And glad these videos can be helpful. Thanks a lot for stopping by.

Hello Matt and Shannon ! Thanks a lot for all the tutorials and sessions. I learn a lot ! About the capo, I’d like to know which one you’re using, coz’ I’ve got one (the « Quick Draw » one), but it tends to wear out in the long run. But yours seems cool ! thank you ! Seb, from France

[@ShannonHeatonMusic]

Hi, Seb - Matt uses Paige capos. He prefers those to the quick draw, because you can adjust the tension more precisely. Obviously can't slide them around quickly, though.

[@Pennyrdi1]

Is there tablature or chord charts available. Hard to see your fingers.
