In this video I'll be running you through an Irish folk guitar chord progression and unusual strumming technique used by Dennis Cahill. The clip I show is from a live performance with Martin Hayes Live at the Irish Arts Centre, NYC, which you can watch in full here:

I should point out that in the B part of the clip, the second and third time through Dennis Cahill actually plays a slight variation on the chords I show. You can find diagrams for the variation on the accompanying blog for this video which is available here:

If you'd like to buy a whole album of Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill, I particularly like Live in Seattle, which you can buy at this link: [ Ссылка ]
Of course all their albums are brilliant and if you like more orchestral, arranged sounding folk music then check out The Gloaming too.

If you'd like to learn how to play by ear, jam along with tunes, learn new songs, understand music theory, improve your rhythm playing, use jazzier chords or anything else to do with Celtic backing guitar then there's really no substitute for learning from an experienced professional teacher.
