Music and Songwriting/The Songwriter's Grooves Project - A Guide to Singing and Playing Guitar/The Synthetic Strumming Song Series/In Your Atmosphere

In Your Atmosphere - John Mayer edit

A hidden gem in the John Mayer Repertoire. The song isn't very widely known, but Mayer fans know it as a favorite. It's also a bit of an enigma because of the mixture of techniques used to create this exotic groove. It's not as hard as it looks, but one should definitely be relaxed and receptive when learning this song, because most players won't find the mixture of techniques to be intuitive.
