Top 3 Free Guitar Jam Tracks Websites - Free Backing Tracks

A Back-up band that's always ready to play.

Sometimes it's hard to find other musicians to jam with, let alone people who want to play the same kind of music you do.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a back up band that's ready whenever you are, and will play the way you want them to play, until
the cows come home?

Most of you probably already know about "jam tracks."  But for those who don't, jam tracks are a recording of a rhythm section, usually drums, bass and rhythm guitar.  You play the track on your
media player and then play along with it on your guitar.

This is a great way to practice your lead playing or to get your strumming down.  It's also great inspiration.

And...FUN!

The thrill you get from playing with other musicians is 10 times better than playing by yourself.
