Been playing along to some Prince stuff and listening to a lot of Vulfpeck. So been practicing my strumming technique, which is coming along ok in terms of timing and muting.
But the one thing I'm struggling with is having a loose hand, while still holding onto my pick (1mm tortex) at the same time. I often find I am either holding it too tight, or that the pick ends up slipping in my hand and I end up using the side of it, which sucks when you are trying to keep a groove going.
This is the ideal end goal of the kind of thing I'm trying to practice (I'll never be this good).
