Fair Annie (Traditional British Folk Song) - Lindsay Straw
Join me on Patreon for early access and tabs! patreon.com/lindsaystraw
It's rare to find traditional songs that feature multiple female characters. When they do, they almost always seem to be of the "Cruel Sister" murder ballad variety. That's why I especially love this tale of sisterly love and support from the songbook My Song Is My Own. According to the book's notes, unmarried relationships often co-existed with marriage and were legally recognized in Scotland until the 13th century.
I took a heavy arranging hand on this one while trying to preserve the story arc - cutting verses, editing verse structure, and making significant alterations to the melody. There are a handful of renditions...

Willow Garden (Traditional American Ballad) - Lindsay Straw

Join me on Patreon for early access and tabs! patreon.com/lindsaystraw Is there an American folk musician under the sun who doesn't know some version of "Down in the Willow Garden"? Pretty sure this one is Murder Ballad #1! I pulled inspiration from versions by Lankum, Nora Brown, and Tim O'Brien & Paul Brady. They're all my favorites, so I combined a bit from each one. Composer: Traditional ar...

Join me on Patreon for early access and tabs! patreon.com/lindsaystraw Sheet music/TAB available: lindsaystraw.com/tabs How many permutations of diatonic D major melodies and chord progressions can one come up with in a lifetime? Here's another one that started as a demo ditty, and I almost let it slip into the ether since it felt so similar to another of my D tunes, "The Cardinal's Path." But ...
Giuliani Inspired Etudes (Fingerstyle Guitar Exercises) - Lindsay Straw

Tabs available! www.patreon.com/lindsaystraw/shop As loosely promised in last month's Right Hand Review video, I've come up with three little etudes inspired by three different Giuliani right hand exercises! I've taken exercises 2, 30 and 83 and made them into more melodic and harmonically interesting little tunes that each have their own challenge. For more details, check out my blog post: lin...

Join me on Patreon for early access! patreon.com/lindsaystraw I was too young to go to Lilith Fair, but I'm making up for it by going to one of Sarah's Fumbling Towards Ecstasy 30 Year Anniversary shows next month! This is probably my absolute favorite of her songs, and it just so happens to be on that album. (Will I cry happy music tears at the show? Yes, absolutely.) To mark the occasion I th...

Aside from just being fabulous players, one thing I loved about playing with these two were the creati...

When I Was Not But Sweet Sixteen (Traditional Folk Song) - Lindsay Straw
Beautiful Lindsay!! Your voice is so expressive and your guitar accompaniment is perfection!!
Thanks, Scott!
Doesn't matter how many renditions of this song I hear it always hits as completely fresh! This is beautifully done Thank you
Thank you so much!
Lovely
Clicked on this on a whim having no idea who you were--and I have to say, that was *probably* the best decision I've made tonight. (Got to be the video's 100th Like, too, so there's that.) Going to check out the rest of your music now...
Wow, thanks so much! Hope you enjoy the tunes!
Tab available for this one over on Patreon! www.patreon.com/LindsayStraw/shop/fair-annie-transcription-243688
Such a beautiful arrangement of vocals and accompaniment by your guitar!
Thank you so much!
Amazing performance my dear friend
I just found you and subbed... Love your music/vocals ❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Thanks so much! Love your username 🐍
@@LindsayStraw I mix music with people (learning to comp). I'd really like to mix harmonica with this song. I would not make it public if you didn't love it... Maybe check my channel for examples... It's all I do... music...🎵🎶🥳
What a beautiful guitar/ vocal performance - you have to play in England! There are so many folk clubs that you'd light up 👏
Lovely performance and that guitar has just the right tone for the song.
Gorgeous song, arrangement and performance ! :-)
beautiful
beautiful
its beautiful
Great performance! The birds with a brief cameo made it all the better!
❤
I've listened to this countless times over the weekend...
Excellent as always. Brought back memories of my dad playing a slow claw hammer version of House Carpenter when young. Made me smile...... Thank you......
Ooh, I'd have liked to hear that!
@@LindsayStraw i suppose Clifton Hicks would be the only one who would do a truly traditional version. I use to have a ton of cassette recordings of playing at different times and places, that i cannot find. But they're in my head still .....
Always exellent, always and allways.... (And thanks to the little birds too...)
Lindsay - your performances just keep getting better and better. Lovely!
D'aww!
Thought I already commented on this sweet rendition. Thank you. To get the birds to sing like that here, I 'd need to get out there about 4 AM.
Very nice!!
Beautiful ♫♥♫
Pretty sweet, where do you find the songs? Do you have certain artist you like? Or is it just popular tunes?
It's a mix! There are definitely some folks whose repertoire I really like and will sometimes draw from, plus there are some great collections of old field recordings and source singers that I'll dig into on occasion. This one actually came from a book and I took a pretty heavy editing hand to it, though.
Wonderful ❤❤❤
The birds like it, too!
Love it Lindsay 😮
Beautiful performance
Wow, that was absolutely beautiful!
Wonderful! Beautifully arranged. Thank you for sharing.
Lovely guitar...what model? If I may
It's an OM style A-2 by luthier Laurent Brondel!
Maith thú
Oh, this is beautiful! It's so hard to lose a furry family member, but it's a gift to turn that grief into something lovely to share with the world. 😿❤️🩹
Amazing singing!
Thank you so much!
Well done, Lindsay!
I'd love to know the story behind this song. Good job.
Singing a capella takes courage 💪 Your voice has lovely undertones that hold the melody perfectly, a lot like a good guitar in DADGAD. Very impressive, Lindsay
🥰
Beautiful! I love your voice. Hope you’re doing well.
Great tune Lindsay! Thank you!
EXCELLENT😇🤩👏🏽
Excellent!!
Excellent!
Love it🎉🎉
Beautiful!
Fantastic Lindsay 😊
i personally like the trick john renbourn and clive carroll are using. its extension made from pingpong balls glued underneath your natural nail. although, it looks like bad french manicure :)
I remember reading about that, too! Can't say it sounds anymore appealing from a time spent gluing, shaping, adjusting, etc. perspective, though 😅
@@LindsayStraw i gave it a try and liked the sound, then i switched to nylon string guitar for a while and got some right hand technique with nails as well as strenght so i dont need them anymore. its kinda pain to be honest. and especially on a guy looks silly :)
That’s awesome! Thank you for this beautiful performance
i just subscribe :)
Sweet, your style is awesome!
Thanks so much!
