It's time for another Instrumental Guitar video! I wrote this song a few years back and have finally gotten the courage to go public with it! (This is the alternate take. I decided to upload it anyway, even though I feel the other version is a little better.)

My wife used to be a ballet instructor, and I would sometimes sit outside on the bench waiting for her classes to be over. One day while I was experimenting with some playing in Drop D tuning, this tune just popped into my head and I haven't been able to get rid of it since.

It reminded me of some of the tunes one of my favorite instrumental guitarist has composed, Tommy Emmanuel. While I can't play like him, I would consider this song to be my tribute to his influential and angelic style. Two of his songs that resonate the most with me are "Questions" and "Those Who Wait." These are the two I think of when playing this song.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Here's hoping you learn something new that will help you along your journey toward guitar greatness!
