Exciting news for guitarists diving into blues rock! Jared James Nichols has added four brand-new lessons to his popular ArtistWorks course. These lessons dive deep into one of Jared's signature tools: the Mixolydian scale. Known for its distinctive blend of major and minor tonalities, this scale is a staple in Jared’s expressive soloing and improvisation. In the first new lesson, Jared breaks down the Mixolydian scale, explaining its unique sound and why it works perfectly over dominant chords across genres. He offers tips on how to internalize its flavor and make it your own.

The remaining three lessons take the Mixolydian magic to the next level, with a focus on F#. Jared demonstrates how to play expressive licks in all five CAGED positions, showing how to seamlessly move these licks across the fretboard. Playing along with a dynamic backing track, he brings the concepts to life, illustrating how to craft melodic, genre-defying solos. Whether you're a seasoned player or new to improvisation, these lessons offer practical insights that you can incorporate into your playing immediately.

In addition to Jared's engaging video instruction, these lessons come packed with supporting materials to enhance your learning experience. You’ll find detailed tablature and notation for each lick, play-along backing tracks to refine your timing, and performance isolation videos with unique camera angles for a clearer view of Jared’s technique. The ArtistWorks platform also lets you slow down the playback and set custom loops, making it easy to practice tricky parts at your own pace.
