It is so nice to see, the seed planted, of music played by a tree. In harder times the universal language of music, in bold vibrant colors, peaceful, strong, attracting so many guitar players to grow with the gifts shared by McKee and Ross. God Bless
I like how you weren't just slapping out loads of techniques because you could, everything just seemed to flow really nicely and made sense. Sometimes holding some techniques back is really difficult but this is extremely well done!
George Mundy Thanks! Glad you like it. Some songs need lots of complicated techniques, while others need to focus on the melody! Thanks again! I really appreciate the support!
I like the effect of his strength in plucking and the extra depth that yields. His assertive style here really makes the song. The thumb strum on the central lick is pretty impressive.
Jake McGuire Been watching your videos for a couple of years now. Was wondering where you've been with your uploads. Great to see you reach such an achievement of being signed.
Aktivitat Well thank you so much for the support over the years, it truly is appreciated. But please, make no mistake, Candyrat did not sign me. I'm just a guest artist for their channel. I'm still an independent artist. That being said, I still feel this is a great achievement and it's only the tip of the iceberg. Please keep in touch with me and you'll see that I have a lot more tricks up my sleeve! ;) That includes some recent videos I've uploaded to my channel, please check it out!
My favorite piece on Candyrat in quite some time. I wonder how much inspiration for this was from Antoine Dufour. I noticed in the description it said the audio production was done by Dufour, but everything else here also reminds me of him. Not just the cloth at the top of the neck, but also the smooth melody, seemless integration of harmonics, complex yet fluid right-hand technique and also the outro was very reminiscent of his style. All in all a very nice piece I liked it a lot. Just as an edit: I checked Jake McGuire's own channel; clearly a big Dufour fan. So everything I said in this comment makes sense.
edallencompassingly Yes! You're spot on! Dufour's music changed my life and it was a dream come true to be able to work with him in the creation of this album. It was very nice to read your words here, can't thank you enough for the support, and I'm very glad you enjoyed this piece. I hope you'll consider buying the album. I put a lot of work into it and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thanks again!
Jake McGuire You're welcome. You're very deserving. Yes it must have been wonderful to work with him. He's my favorite guitarist; I think nobody gets the blend of melody and complexity as spot on as he does and it's good to see others doing it now as well. I will definitely check out the album.
Man, you navigate that guitar like it is just another appendage on your body. The tone you get out that thing is just out of this world. Kudos for creating and performing such a beautiful tune. I am definitely going to check out your record and look for where you take things in the future.
petrovichluzhin "you navigate that guitar like it is just another appendage on your body." Haha! Sometimes it feels like that's the case! I'm really glad you enjoyed it, can't thank you enough for the kind words. And please do check out the album, I've worked so hard on it over the years. Please keep in touch with me!
just bought this song on Itunes and i.m thinking of buying the entire album......i now have 2 favorites. Jake Mcguire and Calum Graham.... Their talent is beyond what you expect from a guitarist.... Eric
I follow Jake McGuire's channel. I have seen him cover many of Antoine's songs. And now, years down the line he is in same label (at least as a guest :P ) Great to see your progress Awesome tune btw.
Excellent song! I'm definitely giving this one a whirl on my axe today, well done! More exclamations are necessary!!! lol thanks! Much sound, very sustain! wow!
+Jonas Reddy-Nicholson Thank you! Hope you enjoyed listening to the album as well, if you've checked it out yet. If not, you can find it on multiple platforms including, iTunes, spotify, soundcloud, and also on my youtube channel. I really appreciate it!
i've checked out your complete album on soundcloud. Great work. I really like your melodic structure especially your vibrant use of harmonics. In my opinion your'e on a pair with artists like Antoine Dufour or Craig D'Andrea. I wish you the very best for your future !
solanaceous08 Being told my music is even close to the level of Dufour and D'Andrea is probably the greatest compliment anyone could give me. Thank you so much for that! I'm really humbled. Really glad you like the album! Keep in touch!
gitarrne Thank YOU for the kind words and support! If you're interested, my album is available on iTunes and amazon, and many other platforms, and I think you'll notice that I ALWAYS put substance over tricks! ;) Really happy you like it!
Mark Dalton Thank you Mark! Please keep in touch with me through FB or YT and I'll let you know when it's available. For now, you can buy it from: www.cdbaby.com/Artist/JakeMcGuire Or if you prefer iTunes or any other online music store, please give it just a couple more days for everything to be set up. I can't thank you enough for the support, really does mean a lot to me. Jake
robebouch Thank you Robert! So nice to have you listen to it. You've been one of my favorites for years now. Keep up the great work sir! You're a huge inspiration for me!
Wow! good job, I remember you talking about Candy Rat not noticing you before. It took awhile but your there now congratulations Jake well done. I'll be listening :)
Donovan Raitt Thanks Donovan! You might not realize it, but you contributed quite a bit to how well prepared I was for the trip to Canada for the recording of the album. Thank you so much for all the advice!
+Jake McGuire Of course. I really like this song alot and I would loooove to learn to play it :) The ending Along with the FADING effect was amazing, this is why I want to learn acoustic. Because of this masterpiece.
+DHG Vampire Thank you! That's very kind of you! If you check the description of this video, you'll find the link where you can purchase the tabs. It's only a few bucks too. I'm very happy I've inspired you to play acoustic!
1/2 million subscribers...folks got good taste...This song is going to go viral at some point...If your'e a Jake Mcquire fan...Hit this song more...and share it with your fingerstylin' friends...81,000 views does not do this song justice...Maybe because there are three versions/videos he made for it ??
It's got such a beautiful melody! And the ending is just flawless. I wonder how I didn't discover you earlier ;) Keep it up Jake! Subscribed to you as well. P. s. Is that an baritone? And what tuning?
This deserves plenty more attention. I come back to listen over and over.
Still loving this song at the end of 2023
This is awesome song even in the year 2024.. Ireturned to the song for the inspirations for my songs ...thank you Jack !!!
This song has such a full, dynamic sound. I love it!
It is so nice to see, the seed planted, of music played by a tree. In harder times the universal language of music, in bold vibrant colors, peaceful, strong, attracting so many guitar players to grow with the gifts shared by McKee and Ross. God Bless
The tone and richness of the sound match the beauty of the surroundings. Awesome stuff. Thanks for sharing.
I'm still pleasantly awestruck by this Jake.
I like how you weren't just slapping out loads of techniques because you could, everything just seemed to flow really nicely and made sense. Sometimes holding some techniques back is really difficult but this is extremely well done!
George Mundy Thanks! Glad you like it. Some songs need lots of complicated techniques, while others need to focus on the melody! Thanks again! I really appreciate the support!
I like the effect of his strength in plucking and the extra depth that yields. His assertive style here really makes the song. The thumb strum on the central lick is pretty impressive.
This is by far one of the most enjoying piece to play! Really glad you composed such a great piece Jake.
Beautifully written and played song; the audio production is superb (Mssr. Dufour) and really lets you hear the artist at work.
This is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing this beautiful creation Jake.
You're very welcome. Sorry for the late response. I appreciate you listening and I'm happy you enjoyed it!
Really clean. The song makes you think good images, nicely done. And divine mastering by the equally godly Mr. Dufour.
incomparable...
the way this song has always moved me...
Truly honored to know how much my work means to you. Thank you so very much.
Thank you Bro.
Jake that was just amazing, thank you for sharing the magic.
Beautiful Melody - Reminds me of my childhood spending time up at the mountains creek on our farm, beautiful.
So happy to hear it brings you good memories. Thank you so much for listening!
I've been listening to this same song for years and it still blows me away.
Thanks so much for the support, Matt.
