Learn Crosspicking, Rhythm and Lead in One Tune! | “Cloverdale Plantation March” - Norman Blake

A lesson on my arrangement of the classic Norman Blake instrumental “Cloverdale Plantation March”. This song is a good example of a complete acoustic guitar tune meaning it combines elements of lead playing, rhythm playing and crosspicking. This song in the key of G is played without a capo and uses some unconventional chord voicings but also a moderate tempo and beginner-friendly melodic elements.

Bluegrass music is what got me started playing guitar I’ve been playing for a few months and didn’t know if I was ever going to going to get good enough to play bluegrass but your tutorials have helped me start playing bluegrass music
