Country Whistling Tutorial - Nick Shoulders

Музыка

Live from the Ozark wild! Tryna pass on some whistling tips to you, the World Wide Web, and what better way than the magic of KZread.org. Appreciate y’all subscribing and sharing! Big shout-out to the generations of Shoulders (yes it’s not a stage name) before me who’ve passed on their whistling genes...BUT: I believe just about anybody can make these pretty noises, and that includes you! Check out the original tunes and holler at my, wait for it; TIKTOK for more bird/critter noises and instructional content. (Upcoming new version of S&W’s in the intro)

    When I was a kid by friends and I taught ourselves to do bird whistles so we could we could signal each other while hiding in the woods... like we saw on the Daniel Boone show. My grandkids now think I have a superpower when I whistle. Totally worth the effort.

    Nick can you make a tutorial for people who really don't know how to whistle at all? I have always wanted to be able to whistle and here I sit at 24 and I've never been able to produce one note! There doesn't seem to be much other content on youtube that's very helpful. Love your music man, thanks, you're a hero.

    Thanks for the tutorial. I've always done all these things naturally without any conscious thought to what I'm actually doing. in fact I never realized I was using my tongue until watching this. I just thought everyone knew how to whistle. But I'll be paying closer attention to my technique now. No doubt seeing what you do with vibrato has already made me a little better at it. thank you

    I think I could whistle a little better if I still had my front teeth but I'm hoping to get some new ones one day, I know you're probably not gonna see this Nick but if you do I was wanting to ask permission to use snakes and Waterfalls as a intro for my treasure hunting channel? My videos aren't that good right now and I don't make any money off KZread but it would mean alot to me if you would give me permission? I did already use it for the ending of one video but I really want to use it as a permanent intro when my videos improve, "Snakes and Waterfalls" and Benjamin Tod's cover of "The Mountain" are the two I really want to use but I don't wanna use it without your permission but regardless thanks for making one of the greatest songs ever,God Bless You Brother 🏹✌
