Welcome to Play Authentic Slow Blues Piano, a set of short lessons with Paddy Milner.
Paddy is one of the leading blues pianists around. After years with Jack Bruce he became Sir Tom Jones's keyboard player of choice, and he is a two-time winner of Best Keyboard Player at the British Blues Awards. Dave Brubeck said of him: 'there's a guy who can really play the piano.'
The slow blues asks for patience. Paddy plays a full slow blues, then takes it apart phrase by phrase - long right-hand lines built from 6ths, tremolos and diminished colour, deep left-hand voicings, and the intros, turnarounds and endings that hold it together. The aim is to say more by playing less.
Try the free lesson first, then work through the rest at your own pace.

All of Paddy's courses are the best courses about blues, boogie and New Orleans piano I've ever done. Thank you! I’m practising the whole day, and if he ever makes another course I'm buying it immediately!

The more I study Paddy's course, the more I get from it!

Paddy Milner is recognised as one of the leading blues piano players in the world - he is currently keyboard player of choice for Sir Tom Jones, following several years with the late, great Jack Bruce - but he is also a superb original songwriter and a distinctive singer. Just read the praise from the likes of Dave Brubeck below! His playing was featured on the soundtrack for the hit 2019 film 'Rocketman'.
He has twice won the award for Best Keyboard Player in the British Blues Awards, and he holds a long-standing residency as a founder member of the Ronnie Scott's Blues Explosion at the world-renowned Ronnie Scott's club.
His current group LONDONOLA plays homegrown British music with a strong dose of New Orleans spirit, and his collaborative group JAWBONE goes from strength to strength following the release of their self-titled debut album.
Across his courses, Paddy breaks down authentic blues shuffle, slow blues, boogie-woogie, rock 'n' roll and New Orleans piano - right down to three classic boogie-woogie songs - so you can learn these styles from one of the very best in the business.
