Asus2

Sus2

About this chord

Asus2 has an airy, open, dreamy floating quality—bright yet unresolved, with a gentle, hopeful tension. Heard in rock and pop ballads, indie folk, acoustic singer‑songwriter textures, and ambient/post‑rock, it adds shimmer without heavy emotion. Beginner‑friendly open position on guitar; on piano it’s a light triad color (A–B–E), often labeled A sus2 or A add2 (no third). Common for drones, pedal tones, and verse pads, it delays major/minor identity, inviting smooth resolution to A or expansion to Aadd9; evokes modern Americana and Celtic/Irish tinges when strummed.
