Lesson Description:
If you've looked up song progressions before you've almost certainly seen sus chords with labels like sus2 and sus4. We tend to think of sus guitar chords as just another chord shape to learn. But historically suspended chords had a very specific function in music. In this short video I explain the theory and history of sus chords and how I recommend practicing them. This unique and alluring chord type is a powerful tool for expression and definitely worth adding to your chord vocabulary.

Sus guitar chords are so beautiful, they’re worth exploring and understanding deeply, that’s why I made this video. In this video I talk about sus2 and sus4 chords, how to play sus chords on the guitar, and how to use sus chords both in a modern sense and a traditional classical sense on the guitar. Sus chords explained this way should help you understand suspended chords historically and theoretically. Suspended guitar chords can be just the spice you were looking for in a chord progression so I hope you’ll enjoy practicing them in the two ways that I suggest in this video.

I hope you enjoyed this lesson and found it beneficial. Let me know what you thought. Thanks! :)
