Free Blues Backing Track MP3 Download

I did a bit of Googling the other day for a free blues backing track that I could download in MP3 format. What followed was a succession of dodgy music files that sound like they were generated through the MIDI chip on a £3 sound card. So, I quickly knocked one up in Garageband using some samples from the Jam Packs.

Feel free to snarf it and have a play. Just load it into your favourite MP3 player and set it to repeat. The file is 12 bars and runs for 24 seconds, so you won’t get much of a solo in if you don’t switch repeat on. Key is A.

Positive comments may encourage me to come up with some more interesting backings.

  1. Hi David,
    I’m putting up a blues guitar I did to your backing track on YouTube. I hope you don’t mind, I looped it and just jammed out on it for nearly 10 min. I put your name in the credits for the backing track. Any issues, let me know and I will take it down and use something else.
    Once I upload it, you should be able to find it at www.youtube.com/dvnobles. The video is called “still got the blues”.
    You can reach me at: dvnobles@cox.net
    Thanks,
    –Dan


  2. Nice one Dan. Can’t see it up there yet - drop me a line when it is. Look forward to hearing it, and glad the backing track worked out for you.

    I might do some more.

    Cheers,

    David
