Justin Yap - Guitarist | How To Be a Better Musician | Blues Philosophy

The Guitaring Show

Hi, 👋 Welcome to The Guitaring Show. Thanks for tuning in!

Justin Yap is a Melbourne blues, soul and funk guitarist. He is a founding member of the hard-working band Rambal and he's a super-nice guy. What was meant to be a crash-course in playing the blues turned into something way more compelling!

In a crude attempt to get me 'gig ready' for a Blues jam I decided to get Justin into The Guitaring Show HQ to give me some killer tips that I could take to the stage. It was a simple idea. A simple idea wrapped inside my selfish motives to be a better blues guitarist! But Justin saw through my pathetic ruse. I soon learned that the true mark of a great player is not simply the notes played, but the intention to deliver a performance that compels a response from the listener based on the emotions that fuelled each note. Or to put it more simply, to 'be in the moment'.

So come with me on this journey as I once again get schooled on how to be a better guitarist and musician!
