CREATIVE MUSICIANSHIP Creative Musicianship: 1 guitar, 2 players

I love it when people find unusual ways to do “usual” things. Sometimes that means writing an odd song, playing a rare instrument, or designing your own instrument.

Sometimes it’s taking a very common instrument, and looking at it differently.

Being a guitar player, I love it when people think outside the box when it comes to how to play a guitar. In the past I’ve looked at creative guitar players such as Erik Mongrain, KT Tunstall, or Andy McKee. But today I’m going to look at a different idea.

A guitar is obviously typically a one person instrument, made to be played with two hands.

But is that a rule of thumb that can be broken?

Apparently! Check out this video:

I like when people think differently about things and aren’t limited to the conventional use of a particular instrument.

If you enjoyed this, please share it!

Welcome To Creative-Music.org
Welcome! This blog is not really intended to give you step by step instructions on how to do some kind of creative music project (since it seems like that maybe defeats the purpose of wanting to be creative!) Instead, I hope to inspire you with ideas, examples, and exercises meant to get you thinking more creatively about how you write or perform your music.

AND IF YOU'RE NOT A MUSICIAN...
You still might appreciate some of the things we'll be talking about. The ideas are going to focus on music because I love music, but if you're creative enough, you can apply a lot of the basics to whatever art you may be into. So stick around!
