“Inverness” comes from fiddler/mandolinist John Mailander, who recorded it on his album Walking Distance. It’s a beautiful, contemplative melody that alternates measures of 6/4 and 4/4. Joe walks you through the second part of “Inverness” in this video.

Metaren, Part 1 |
The Swedish waltz “Metaren” (“The Lazy Fisherman”) was written by Swedish octave mandolinist Ale Möller and recorded by him with the band Frifot. Joe recorded it with Peghead Nation guitar instructor and co-founder Scott Nygaard on the album Scott Nygaard and Crow Molly. It’s a spare, beautiful melody, but the phrasing is unusual, especially the second part, and the timing can be a bit tricky. You’ll learn the A part of “Metaren” in this video.
