How Mix Strumming and Licks Seamlessly

New Ukulele Tutorials every Wednesday and Saturday
Today we are going to learn how to play mix rhythm and lead, strumming and licks, chords and scales, harmony and melody, and how to do it while playing perfectly in beat. This is a great skill to have if you spend a lot of time playing alone but you want to add elements of lead to your playing.
There are several different ways to approach this concept, one of them is simply using triad arpeggios and then you can easily extend those ideas with color tones. Color tones, the 2nd, 6ht and 7th, are a great way to create fills. In addition to that we can use intervals, the 3rds, 4ths, 5ths and 6ths, we can use the scale or different scales, we can multiple chord shapes, and, the best way to do it, is to combine all these different ideas. In this tutorial I will give you 10 different fills that you can use over specific chords, the C, F, E7, G, Dm and Em. So any time you are playing a song and that song has a pause over one of these chords, pause meaning you are strumming without singing, you can plug in one of these fills. So you have a song with a chord progression that goes G Am F C and there is no singing over the C just plug in the fill that you used for the C chord and you are good to go! If you know how to transpose ideas you can move these idea up a whole step and play it perfectly of a D for example, you can also use these ideas over relative minors.

@@TenThumbsProductionsCan I use the G major fills for songs in GM as well? Well I guess your first example was the Gm right?😂😂😂

[@TenThumbsProductions]

@@G..G.. No, you shouldn't but you can use G major example with Em. Relative majors and minors work, so C works with Am, D with Bm, E with C#m, F with Dm, G with Em, A with F#m and Bb with Gm.
