Hey GMC! It's time to swing today. As usual, check video #1 to read and listen some theory about this lesson.

I made a backing track to jam over the chord progression playing those chords or just improvising, if you like it. Try to experiment playing chords with some emphasis on beats two and four. This can add more swing to your rhythm.

You can find chord diagrams on the Guitar Pro file.

I used my right thumb to strum the strings here. Obviously, you can try also with a pick.
If you are interested in this technique I suggest you to see also Muris' Wes Montgomery style octaves

Enjoy!
