In this Island In The Sun guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play this smash hit by Weezer note-for-note.
The tuning is standard tuning, E A D G B E.
We will start the lesson with that instantly recognizable riff that is being played by Rivers Cuomo. It uses simple triad shapes across the 1-3 string set. He is then joined by Brian Bell playing fuller versions of these chords on acoustic.
I will take you through each section of the song and demonstrate both parts for each section.
This includes Rivers Cuomo's nice melodic solo!
Quick note! If you check out some more recent Weezer live performances, you might see them playing this song with a capo. Well, for some reason, these later live performances have them playing "Island In The Sun" a whole-step higher than that of the original recording. However, I will be teaching it in the original key, so no need for a capo.
Have fun learning this Weezer classic! Carl...

Easily one of the best no bs guitar KZreadrs to learn songs from
I haven't heard or played this song since i was maybe 13 years old, I'm 32 now. Thanks for the quick lesson Carl 🤘🏻
born too early to venture into space born too late to late to explore the earth born just in time to witness yet another great guitar lesson
interesting... Btw, the Sails of Charon by the Scorpions/Uli Jon Roth would be most excellent.
Thanks Carl for another great lesson, liked Weezer ever since the Undone Sweater song! Join Carl's Academy everybody and get the best teacher of guitar. Carl's ear is very accurate and that combined with his knowledge and teaching style makes for a perfect combination to learn from!
Fuckennnn shittt i was just thinking to learn this song 4-5 days back …BOOMMM !!!! carl comes out with the lesson ..i feel so blessed Carl you’re an angel 😇 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

@@michaellawlor5625 For sure. By the way, I hope our previous comments did not sound ungrateful. There is a reason we're here, which is that Carl is amazing for providing such thorough resources, for free, that we can learn entire songs from. And there are tons of songs he has already shared lessons for that are as great as anything we could ever request. Thank you, Carl!
I miss that you play the whole thing in the beginning. Always differentiated you to me from other instructors out there
