Acoustic Guitarist shows what can be done with a looper pedal

I never thought much of these looper pedals until I heard what some acoustic blues type players were doing with them.  It doesn't substitute for a real band but it shows what a little funk and soul can do to provide life to an otherwise dry and lifeless technology.  Of course I went out and bought one of these pedals and it will probably just sit because I don't have enough time to sit and figure out exactly how to work it right - LOL!

This singer guitarist is named Matt Calder and he fronts his own band called THE POUR out of SLC Utah.

Definitely a good player, composer and performer.  I like this song a lot.  The rhythm reminds me of King Sunny Ade'.  - JC

    Nice – a bit of Stephen Stills' Black Queen in there somewhere too.

    If you want a really good tutorial on loopers, check out KT Tunstall doing 'Black Horse and the Cherry Tree' on YouTube – and then watch this one of here teaching you how to do it.
