How To Get Swing, Lift and "Nyah" into Irish Music 🇮🇪 A Crazy but Extremely Effective Method!

In today’s banjo lesson, I’m bringing you a method I’ve used myself to help improve my playing. It’s a little “crazy”, but it works!
➡️ Much of the style of Irish music is so iconic that many of us already know what it should sound like. It’s in our heads.

By trying to lilt out the song in your head while playing it on the banjo, you can actually improve your playing by syncing up with the swing, lift, and “nyah” you’ve already mentally imagined.
➡️ It’ll help you sound a bit more traditionally Irish on the banjo.
This lesson will make you look a bit silly, but what do you have to lose?

For sure the tune has to be first in the mind. That is the first thing. If you can lilt it, you are ready to play it.
