Walking Bass Lines Over A Single Chord EXPLAINED!

This week we're looking at walking bass lines and specifically, how to walk over a single chord for long periods of time.

Many players new to walking bass find a lot of information regarding playing through changes like 2-5-1’s and blues progressions. That practice is absolutely vital and probably most useful when learning to walk, but there isn’t the same attention paid to walking over a single chord.

Learning to walk over a single chord is a really useful skill. Modal jazz is the most obvious place for this kind of application but learning to walk over one chord is also great for practicing chord tones and scales over the whole fretboard and it also gives you the chance to experiment with a variety of chord tones, scales and chromatic notes within one tonality.

This kind of walking can be really tough when you’re getting started because you can quickly run out of vocabulary and it forces you think up lots of new ideas while exercising your ear on the fly.

So in this video I'll be giving you tips on how to start building that vocabulary.
