From backwoods barbecues and community gatherings; Allen Stone emerges to share personal melodies, telling his tales of life after just 24 years. Getting his start singing at his father's church in small-town America; it wasn't until later when introduced to the greats of soul music (Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin) and then to the confessional lyrical fashion of the 60's -70's singer/ songwriters, did music begin to ignite intense passion, eventually carrying this boy to a musical home.
This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I play an Fmaj9 because it suits the melody better but I think on the record with the full band they just play an F major chord. An easy way to think of an Fmaj9 and a nice way to play it is like you're playing the chord as a C/F. If that doesn't work for you then an F chord can get the job done.
