The first 500 people who click the link in the description will get 2 free months of Skillshare Premium The past century has seen the rise of lots of new styles of music, from jazz to rock to hip-hop to funk, but at the heart of it all sits possibly the most important musical invention in American history: The Blues. The genre lent a voice to struggling communities in the late 1800s, and it's persisted in one form or another ever since, helping shape the musical vocabulary of a nation and the world. You can't understand modern music without understanding the Blues, and you can learn a lot about the Blues just by studying its signature song form: The 12-Bar Blues. It's an iconic device that's been used to great effect by artists in all sorts of styles for over a century, and it just might be the most influential chord progression ever written.
