How to Find Strum Pattern in a Song

[@p0LLutionn]

This is exactly what I was looking for. You are such a great teacher!

[@TomasMichaud]

thank you! Glad you found it helpful!

[@bettyswunghole3310]

You make a very good point about not getting too "trapped" by the rigid "down-up-down-up" strumming motion. I've seen a lot of YT vids that kind of imply (especially for beginners) that you're not "doing it right" if you don't adhere to this pattern.

[@nicolen.9642]

You're right Tomas. Thanks for comforting some strumming anxiety...🎶🎶🎶

[@TomasMichaud]

Glad I could help Nicole.

[@annamariehewitt3173]

I LISTEN TO THE SONG ABOUT 5 TIMES AND THAT GIVES ME EVERYTHING I NEED IN ORDER TO PLAY IT... THE KEY, RHYTHM AND TEMPO...

[@TomasMichaud]

Cool Annamarie.

Thank you for this brother it's very helpful. May GOD Bless you 💛

[@FiChannon2024]

Brilliant - thank you. Nice and straight forward.

[@michaelp8856]

tomas - this is very helpful. i spend hours trying to figure out the strum pattern from the videos of the artist (like Peter Frampton songs). i think i waste too much time doing that. but, i like what you said - "..the essence of the groove that you can translate on your guitar"

[@TomasMichaud]

Glad it helped!

[@chappo5410]

Thanks Tomas your videos are so helpful

[@reidtillery2856]

[@TomasMichaud]

My pleasure Atul. Thanks for stopping by.

[@nooksak1]

Thanks!

If we have a drummer, I will keep adjusting my strum pattern to fit the drumming. If no drummer then I listen to the song carefully and adjust until I think it sounds right along with the other instruments. Each song is different.

[@birdandcatlover5597]

thank you. a lot of tutorials don't provide strum pattersn that...fit. its just off somehow. half the chord charts i find don't include a strum pattern at all

I like this video very much. Please tell me what will be the pattern for silhouette by Kana-Boon (1min 30 sec version)

[@abhishekpardeshi9400]

QUESTION: Hi Tomas, can you please do a video on how to add bass sound to our finger style technique using our palm and also by slapping the low strings with thumb. Those effects really sound good and makes the music sound cool. Please if you could, please do a video on it. Thank you!

[@TomasMichaud]

Hi Abhishek. I'll add this to my list.

[@abhishekpardeshi9400]

@@TomasMichaud Thank you!

[@stephend9899]

Listen to the notes either going up the scale or down and the order, and sync timing while playing with the song.

[@gracegrace4116]

Thank you much!

[@TomasMichaud]

You're welcome Grace (nice name)!

[@Yoerscult]

[@MrGman127]

What's name of the tune used in your video? I like that type of music to practice with, but I'm not sure as to what it is called... Thanks for this informative lesson...

[@dnguyen787]

Good tip!

[@TomasMichaud]

Thanks Bien.

[@dpukg]

Hi Tomas, if you could recommend me an electroacoustic?

[@TomasMichaud]

Thanks for your request, Dr. Deepak Gupta Tell me more about what your price range is, your playing level and the style of music you play.
