I've been a big fan of both you and khruangbin for years now. Khru opened the doors for me as far as guitar lead instrumental music can be cool and not just novelty for people who play the guitar. When I first saw their Tiny Desk performance years ago and it blasting open with Maria Tambien, I immediately wanted to go home and start taking the guitar more seriously. Same thing happened when i first saw your video covering "Nothing Compares to You", so its awesome to see two of my greatest inspo's come together for one video.
Man, you really did nailed it. Thanks for the video! For self: Hey there my future self. Right now I start working on this song even though i'm begginer-intermediate. Will see how long it will take to learn.
Your lesson more so then anyone else on youtube seem to come at the "right" time for me. You're great at teaching in a way where a beginner to an advanced player will get something out of it.
Traduzion Eric, I really like your approach, professional and humble, your sincerity. I go out of my way to say what I feel listening to Khruangbin despite the fact that I am a complete inept with music in any instrument. I think Mark has transferred his own singing into the guitar, he sings with the guitar. Hence also his many improvisations and variations on the theme. He knows well what he wants, he can stay stable within the rhythm of the drums and absorbs Laura's bass well. Well thank you for your lessons and especially thank God that there are Khruangbin, Thai flying engine.
Khruangbin is such a tight trio. The drummer is a human metronome, bass is full and tasty, and Mark has such a distinct style and sound. Hard to be in a bad mood listening to them. This lesson/ breakdown was just what I needed. Thank you 🙏🏻🤍 ✌️🍕
I LOVE Khruangbin. I don't generally watch the lesson part of a video (I make a sometimes feeble, occasionally successfully attempt to figure things out on my own) but the playing at the beginning was excellent. Great tone as well.
I just discovered khruangbin 2 weeks ago they are awesome--- wanted to thank you for this video it gave me great ideas and new chords in my practice ----- a gem
Oooh, please please do more Khruangbin song lessons, this is the band that finally pushed me to try learning guitar seriously. Really appreciate it! Would sub twice if I could, man
The way you play those A chords after Bm is reminiscent of Ali Farka Touré on his album with Diabaté Toumani. Check it out, great classic Malian music.
@@ikkenendendikken1 Yeh, the whole Mark Speer sound appears to me to be heavily influenced by the Malian guitar sound, West African basically, but that sound is mostly found in Mali. Great and magical stuff.
MSpeirs works his whole sound/vibe around fairly long or complex eastern melodic phrasing and lines over western soul/jazz/blues/pop/hip-hop progressions... and it's fantastic. it's like he's playing horn section, citar and piano parts in the progression on a guitar. like Steely Dan meets the Isleys.
This couldn't have been better timed! I was picking out parts of this song yesterday and then jumped online and your video was the first suggested. It's nice to know the algorithm is listening lol. Thanks Eric!
I hear a conversation between a fast talking little kid, asking if he can “hang out” later than usual and a calm headed parent slowly but purposefully explaining why it’s a bad idea. Brilliant.
Khruangbin and mark speer are my favorite right now. Any lessons on mark speers approach will keep me coming back to your channel! I mark speer does all these really cool melodic things with the triads and caged chord shapes. Id love a lesson breaking down the chords he uses and how he uses major triads for minor7 chords and all the voicings and triad shapes he uses. I cant seem to figure out his chord progressions when i try and learn by ear. I can get his shapes though
Eric thank you so much for showing us this song! 🔥🔥🔥I've been hoping for another Khruangbin video from you. Love your explanation of what's going on in the song and each chord. Very educational.
Excellent Eric! Really appreciate this walk through. Speer is unique talent and youve really broken it down: simply shapes but it’s the timing and understand of melody that makes it magic.
Your last video on Khruangbin was my first introduction to them, and they've since become my favorite artist! Mark Speer is such an inspiration. Was very much looking forward to the video when you mentioned it in your email. Don't think you could ever do enough Khruangbin videos! Thanks for the insight as always
I just wanted to say thanks Eric for everything you put up here on You Tube! I've learned so much. I purchased your CAGED system on True Fire and am really "rewiring" the brain to think of the fretboard with chords instead of scales. Every major and minor chord has one of the five pentatonic scales right under it! Been listening to "Bundle Up" on Spotify. Beautiful album. 👍
Thanks for this Eric, I hadn’t heard of this band until your post and now I am slightly obsessed with trying to play this well, also given me some improvisation ideas. Cheers M😊
Nice. Khruangbin's groove is so good. This lesson reminded me that I should play fingerstyle on electric more often. Speaking of Thai-influenced music, check out the group Dengue Fever. Speaking of instrumental guitar-based music check out the duo Steelism or member Jeremy Fetzer's work.
Thank you for the lesson!! Your tutorials are by far the easiest for me to follow! I would love it if you did “People Everywhere (Still Alive)” and “Connaissais de Face”!
@@omarfoudeil2497 It's really not. Mostly just pent stuff and Eric shows you the function of that 9th off the Bm (which is also the maj3rd of the A chord).
At the beginning after the "bouncing" A he backs up to the G triad. He also, in the beginning riff he also, with his ring finger touches the A not on the 7th fret, D string.
Will you ever do a J.Greenwood vid? Or Thom and his interesting rhythm playing seen on ‘In Rainbows-Live from the Basement’…. Heard some of this artists work and he’s excellent! I love unique sounding players.
How about a lesson in using syncopation in songwriting, and tips on staying on that groove. Starting that Bm on the 4 of this song, and staying with the syncopation is challenging. Thanks Eric!
Excellent lesson, I'd love to see you do one for "August 12" from the first album. It would be a great companion for this, I feel like that tune is slept on a bit.
@@EricHaugenGuitar Ah makes sense, guess I've never been this early to a video, saw Khruangbin and I just HAD to drop everything and come 😁Thanks for the breakdown
I struggle to play that a minor. any tips from anyone? Can't get my index finger on the two bottom strings without my middle finger touching the second string. Sorry for my lack of guitar terminology.
Eric Haugen is always a most excellent way to cap off a workweek and ease into the weekend with kind music, brilliant insights, and pizza. Superb.
Mark speer is such a great guitarist and seems like a swell guy in every clip I've seen of him. His playing seems like a reflection of his personality
The genius of Mark Speer is highlighted by this meticulous dissection of this tune. Well done, Eric. Fab job.

Speer is my absolute favorite guitarist working these days. I also find his rhythms really hard to follow/feel/replicate, but they sound great.

watch the lesson man. learn to play it. then learn another one. it's doable.

Been listening to Khruangbin since 2017 when my buddy introduced me. Love how they pull me out of the mundane blues chord structure music!
One of my favorite guitarists covering one of my favorite songs. Perfect Friday!
Khruangbin finally!
I did “Dern Kala” a while back too!
Love the way you break this down. You not only show us the how, but the why as well. So huge for me and others looking to expand their playing
This is harder to play than it looks! Btw thank you I can't stop listening to Khruangbin now..
The way you play those A chords after Bm is reminiscent of Ali Farka Touré on his album with Diabaté Toumani.
Check it out, great classic Malian music.
you should check out @derekgripper
Khruangbin made an album with his son, Vieux Farka Touré.

SUCH A GOOD RECORD

A+ lessons. This is brilliant. Excellent (and approachable) explanation for what Khruangbin is shooting for.

It’s cool and fun learning this song but to get all those rhythmic details is where it gets challenging wow
Very groovy stuff, thx!

Thanks so much man!
nice tone!
love the K... as a houstonian, i'm very proud of them.
Great video
Thanks for this Eric, I hadn’t heard of this band until your post and now I am slightly obsessed with trying to play this well, also given me some improvisation ideas. Cheers M😊
one of my favorite songs Eric. I'll gladly watch this after only halfway learning it at the beginning of august last year
Nice, just started learning the bass lines so i cant wait to get a solo jam goin w my loopers, bass and guitar yay

wow, great job Eric! love your work on the production aspect of the videos lately!
Thank you for the lesson!! Your tutorials are by far the easiest for me to follow! I would love it if you did “People Everywhere (Still Alive)” and “Connaissais de Face”!
A lovely beginning to this year!
Thank you, Eric and wishing you an excellent 2024 ✌️😌🎸✨
best lessons around. thanks, Eric!
Man I love this channel. Even if the song is too hard for me I always love your choices of songs to cover.
It's really not "too hard". Just takes time to get under your fingers. Go slow and learn fast.
@@dustylense Yeah man that's what I'm gonna do. It just looks intimidating at first.
@@omarfoudeil2497 It's really not. Mostly just pent stuff and Eric shows you the function of that 9th off the Bm (which is also the maj3rd of the A chord).
@@dustylense I see. Well thx for the encouragement 👍
SMOOTH ,WELL DONE
Just superb Eric thank you, great start for the new year all the best
great song...great breakdown...nice plants
Aimee Nolte has a great video on that minor chord/adjacent major chord move (I think the title has “gospel trick” in it)
Yeah, I think she used an Anita Baker song Body & Soul) if I’m not mistaken…
super cool man thanks, helps me get into Mark's way of thinking the guitar
great work dude!!! Defo would love more khruangbin stuff! if you have time. :))
I did "Dern Kala" a while ago:
th-cam.com/video/rwDMQvDq-Kw/w-d-xo.html
(working on others too)
This video really tied my Friday together, man. ;)
You are great at this YT teaching thing. Thanks
So cool you made this video, can’t wait to have time to really dive into it.
Love this band!
Cool song. I will check this band out. Thanks Eric!

Backing track cover? That new to me.
New sub… diggin ur channel and style. Thanks !🙏
Eric Haugen teaching me to play like Mark Speer…what a dream.
Sounding great
Love this stuff Eric. Thanks!
Been waiting for this one. As always, excellent description and videography. Patreon’d.

What a fantastic video have a wonderful weekend Eric also happy new year also how was your holiday season ❤😊
YESSS I was waiting for this after seeing your Patreon email update.
Really diggin' your Carr amp😃👍👍
😎✌👍❤🖖
Amazing work.
Beautiful
I know ima attempt this and not sound anything like him. Dude has such a unique sound - on a clean amp!
Awesome explanation. Super helpful!
love that song ❤
You should do a lesson on the New Track “May Ninth”
Just started one of your lessons on Truefire… CAGED Zen!
pleaaaaaseeeee make a lesson on como me quires.
I love your videos
Oh, nice! Love your lessons and Khruangbin is the best.
Excellence
dang nice love that hammer on from the A triad to the Bm nice
Any hints at Headrush Pedal Configurations to get close to Mark's sound?
You always say america, but im from Brazil, and im very thankful about your work. So next time say "world" hahahaahaha
Excellent! How about one by Hermanos Gutierrez next? Similar in my mind, but with a hypnotic-latin feel.
Oh yeah I’ve got my ears on them too!
Excellent video! Have you or would you cover sultans of swing at some point? Seems like it might vibe nicely with your style...
why is this fantastic video unlisted? 🤔
hehehe because I'm sitting on the other side of your screen double-checking everything before I hit "publish."
@@EricHaugenGuitar Ah makes sense, guess I've never been this early to a video, saw Khruangbin and I just HAD to drop everything and come 😁Thanks for the breakdown
Peeps, go stream “A Love International”. New song from Khruangbin. They’re releasing another album soon 🪩✈️🎊
2024 is the year to push towards minimum 94% accuracy 😊 Totally agree that the hexatonic is a game changer
YES!!!
great lesson, as always. thanks Eric for being a great teacher! Take it sloooow and eat pizza.
Eric seriously, do you have my Spotify’s account credentials???
I struggle to play that a minor. any tips from anyone? Can't get my index finger on the two bottom strings without my middle finger touching the second string. Sorry for my lack of guitar terminology.
I discovered Khruangbin on a mushroom trip. Also, do you like the band Skinshape?
th-cam.com/video/qHp2ooJxJRs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fqCkjPRx8CKMuyX5
The opening shot of the amps and plants was erotic
Khruangbin is a guilty pleasure.
You look high
Not enough fake wigs and bullshit hipster “look how hard I am trying to look like I don’t try” attitude. 2 stars out of ten.
Backing track cover? That new to me.
