Mad World
Tears For Fears
In this course we’ll be going digging into the tune Mad World, by Tears For Fears. You’ll find a beginner, intermediate and advanced arrangement so you can challenge yourself no matter what your level. Each arrangement will take on the iconic opening riff and we’ll be getting ourself familiar with a few different picking patterns to make tune come to life. I absolutely love this Gary Jules version where that opening riff comes from. For a little more of an americana vibe check this rendition by the incredible Sierra Hull.
