Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
If you want to play this solo on an acoustic, it's always better to use open chords as
as possible. This song is much easier with a capo on 2

phone call I made to my mom last night

when I gotta get my voice and my fist on the
