Here's the full progression. This 2-5 is similar to my favourite m7-9 2-5 cycle, we're just adding the 9 to our m7. From there, any barre chord difficulty aside, fingers 2 & 3 are already in position to play our 1 chord. Groove on! youtu.be/t9VddcNFnlg

Instead of renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of Murica, my choice would be to rename it after icon Molly Sibly, the hero extraordinaire of @hollywilson.bsky.social's epic novel KITTENTITS.

The glue attaching the dowel stick to the neck on my new/old tenor banjo crapped out so I got to play with hide glue for the first time today. Trippy shit to work with, but not too bad.

Here's the full progression. This progression sounds great & gets easier to play with every chord. The astute among you may recognize our 1 chord shape as the same as our previous 1 in F. With only 4 notes available, we often recycle shapes in new contexts. Groove on! youtu.be/9xBKpT2plQQ

Here's the full progression. Now this, is a damn simple progression, yet still has an absolutely fabulous sound. We've got that finger flip between the 2 & 5 chords, but even that's not too difficult. You can slide finger 1 up to catch the 1 chord, but using finger 2 sets us up to loop back... 1/

After our most recent 2-5-1, I thought we'd slow it down a little and post a simple progression in F. Play on!

Here's the full progression in all its resplendent glory. Yes, it's a nightmare to play, even I struggle, but I really dig the sound. The only advice I can offer is to take it slow & think of the accomplishment. Alternately, now's a good time for alcohol. youtu.be/6u2X4CD2mtM

Not to be outdone by yesterday's chord, today's chord is Cmaj7#5#11, the 1 in our 2-5-1 in C. Our 7(B)/3(E) pair is split between strings 4 & 1, our #11(F#) is on string 3, & our #5(G#) is on string 2. Dig it with a root while you curse my name: youtu.be/SetyAeMVP-o

If you're looking for an excellent fecking book to read, I'd highly recommend Holly J Wilson's KITTENTITS. I can't possibly say enough good things about it. No spoilers, but it may not be for the faint of heart. Definitely the best book I've read in a good long while.

According to my notes, we've had 2-5-1s in every key but C so far this year. Instead of giving you a boring, simple 2-5-1 in C, I thought I'd give your fingers a workout. If you're not cursing my name at the end of this, I haven't done my job. Play on!

Here's the full progression. This 2-5 is a derivative of my favourite 2-5, the m7-9. This 5 -1 is equally groovy. Hingeing on that D# on string 3, finger 1 slides down 1 fret and finger 2 drops to string 1 at fret 2, making for a very smooth transition. youtu.be/l_9mkOIptlg
