Oxymoron Blues

Here’s a brand new original blues in the classic Piedmont style where I oxymoronically employ plectrum tuning while abusing Travis picking.

Ukulele plectrum is a linear tuning akin to banjo plectrum tuning. Low to high, F C E G.

This piece is dedicated to Ricardo Colubi, a Spanish banjo, ukulele and guitar player who, incidentally, enjoys playing in plectrum tuning.

The tablature for this piece is included in my book Anthology of Alternate Ukulele Tunings - Vol. 1.
