Who You Say I Am • Cajon Playthrough

Описание: A song from Hillsong celebrating our identity in Christ. It's got a solid 6/8 groove to it, with a few variations and intensities.
--
My goal with these videos is to provide a somewhat simplified version of the percussive elements for the song, while retaining as much of the feel and rhythms normally beat out on a drum kit. I don’t want to use a ton of flashy playing, or even show the full extent of what I might play if I were to sit in on cajon for a Sunday morning set with this song. I’ve been known to add hihats, tambourines, shakers, toms and a whole bunch of stuff to an acoustic set. While those can all be appropriate and a lot of fun, I don’t feel like that’s the most helpful for someone who’s sitting on a cajon for the first time or is still getting a feel for playing with a band. For these videos, I’ll stick to a cajon and an occasional shaker.

If you have any questions about playing cajon, how I approached this song, or any song requests, let me know!

Glory to God, always.

P.S. - Sorry for the dramatic/dim lighting. At the time of filming, I was isolating in my basement and had to work with the space and lighting available. I'll also never wear a black hoodie with a dark background again! Hopefully the next batch of videos will look a little better.
