Blues bass riffs are just about the perfect thing to pull out of your arsenal at a blues jam session.

Why?

Because if you play some authentic blues bass riffs, it signals to all the other people playing that you know and understand the language of the blues.

And it doesn’t hurt that you know these riffs will sound good in advance.

Have you ever been to a blues jam session, but been too intimidated to actually get up and play with other people? I get it those things can be scary if you’ve never been to one before.

Or maybe you have done it, but it didn’t go as well as you would have liked. Maybe you’ve even ‘bombed’, which leaves you completely deflated.

So what’s the solution? How do you give yourself the absolute BEST chance of nailing it? How do you make sure you leave the jam session on a high and feeling invincible rather than getting home and not even wanting to look at your bass?

Simple get to know the language of the music!

How do you do that? By straight up playing (or you might say ‘borrowing’ or even ‘stealing’) existing bass lines or riffs that you know are going to work in advance.

So in this video, I want to show you exactly how to do this and where to start.

These 5 vintage blues bass riffs would be perfect to pull out of your arsenal at your next (or your first) blues jam session. We’re going as oldschool as Muddy Waters and as modern as Cream and it’s going to be a great time!

Some of the riffs can work over a ton of blues tunes, while others are specific to individual songs. The more of the blues language you know though, the better chance that you’ll nail it when the jam session comes around.

If you want to practice these riffs for yourself, be sure to download the tabs, notation and practice tracks by going to this page:

And filling out the form above. It’s 100% free and it’ll help get you up to speed using these riffs for yourself.

Good luck with the video and let me know if you get the chance to use any of these riffs soon I’d love to hear about it.

Cheers,

Luke
