Hive Open Mic 121, Amor de Familia - Emotional Blues Ballad (Guitar Solo)

Hive Open Mic 121, here we are again! I have seen some of your videos already and they are so awesome!

This week I am playing an Emotional Blues Ballad solo. I like to try and build up my guitar solos and try to restrict myself from going all out right away haha. So, make sure you listen until 2:15 where I start to open up!

I always play from the heart. Music is an emotive form of expression for myself. I try to 'feel' what I am playing. Now, this has been from the start, before I knew how to play guitar, I always felt like music deeply touched my soul, especially blues guitar solos! That is why I love playing them so much :)

Now, this weekly theme 'I love my family' is something I have been thinking about a lot recently, as it has been many years since I have seen any of my family members. So, I am quite emotional to be honest, as I miss them all very much! Anyway, I tried to let out my feelings in this guitar solo.

I hope you all enjoy this one! Also-- maybe I shouldn't wear a black shirt, makes me look like a floating head, kinda creepy hey ;)

Another awesome week of open mic entries! I will spend some time watching everyone's tomorrow morning (it is almost bedtime here for me in New Zealand - yes, I'm getting old and go to bed early on a Saturday night...)

One more thing... it is a dat of celebration for me today! Today marks the 1 month anniversairy since my debut album 'TIME?' was released! If any one would like to hear it, just let me know in the comments and I will link to you! There is 9 tracks, and something for everyone :)

Peace and love to you all!
