Truefire Tyler Grant's Hummingbird by Ricky Skaggs [TUTORiAL]

Learn how to play “Hummingbird” by Ricky Skaggs with this immersive TrueFire Song Lesson, taught by acclaimed guitarist and educator Tyler Grant. A high-energy instrumental staple, “Hummingbird” blends precision, drive, and melodic interplay, featuring tightly woven acoustic guitar parts, blazing mandolin lines, and a rock-solid rhythm section.

Designed for players of all skill levels, this Song Lesson begins with a full-band performance and reference video to establish the form, tempo, and overall ensemble sound. From there, you’ll move through dedicated sections for each part: an easy guitar arrangement, two electric guitar parts, two acoustic guitar parts, and the mandolin line. Every part follows TrueFire’s trusted three-phase format: an in-depth lesson, a guided practice session with the instructor, and a full-band playalong that lets you perform your role in context.

The backing track features drums, bass and a click track, delivering a tight, energetic band mix that captures the drive of the original tune. With TrueFire’s powerful learning tools like synced tab and notation, looping, slow motion, and multi-angle video, you can break down fast phrases, refine your timing, and gradually work up to full tempo at your own pace.

So grab your guitar and let’s dig into “Hummingbird” with Tyler Grant!
