Sign in to disble this ad
We are looking to add about 10 super easy songs for both bass and guitar to our set list. Do you guys have any suggestions for us?

Looking for songs for my wife (beginner on Strat) and myself as 'The Living Room Duo.'

There is a ton of punk stuff that won't be terribly challenging if you play it a bit slower. Slowed down Misfits, as an example.

Sunshine of Your Love by Cream

First song I learned on bass, and the bass and guitar more or less mirror each other. Of course the solo isn't so easy, but you can just skip that

Judas Priest's "Living After Midnight" is fun, straight-forward and typically well-received... depending on the audience, of course.

I could even imagine it being done in a stripped-down, pensive ballad style.
