If you're a guitarist and you haven't spent time really listening to Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers.. you're missing out on one of the most important lessons in songwriting and guitar playing: simplicity done right.
In this video, I break down one of their songs to show how something so simple.. a basic chord progression, a straightforward riff.. can be incredibly powerful when it's done with intention. There’s no flash, no overplaying, no trying to show off. Just great parts, played with feel, in service of the song.
It’s the kind of stuff that’s easy to overlook when you’re chasing more complex theory or faster playing.. but this is the foundation. The kind of playing that sticks with people. Tom Petty’s music reminds us that sometimes the most magical thing you can do as a guitarist is not overcomplicate it.
If you're trying to grow as a player, especially in songwriting or rhythm guitar, this is essential listening.
