Tonight’s song/idea, “Summer” is in the key of A# Major.
Some ideas I share are simple and to the point. But simple doesn’t have to be boring. Tonight’s song/idea is a mid-tempo no-frills song that includes some interesting chord voicings. Hopefully it’s relaxing and captures the feel of summer for you.
Here are the chords I’m playing while using the full version of our chord charts, which illustrate 167 chords in this tuning.
May these daily alt tunings continue to inspire you as you explore songwriting beyond the limitations of standard tuning.
