In the guitar warmups section, I've added downloadable files. You can see some of the exercises as photos (and print that way) but you can also download the pdfs. Enjoy! If you think I've made your playing move down the highway in any good way, please consider supporting my music!
“They (In Orbit) blew everyone away! Supergroup is a term that’s thrown around all too often, but In Orbit are an authentic example of musical synergy. The lineup features names that will get your attention on first glance, and the music these guys put together is powerful, funky, and out of this world! Can’t wait to book them again.” Paul Hinrichs, Kaslo Jazz Etc. Festival
