Fingerstyle Guitar, Music Theory, & More…
I’ve been inspired by so many musicians and I’ve always been fascinated by what is going on in their heads while they are playing or writing. This guitar workshop is all about getting into my Melody Bird brain and to add all my tricks to your bag.
One to Two Hour Workshop
This workshop will start out lecture style, but will evolve into groups and one-on-one instruction. Take the time to learn, get your questions answered, and actually play out what we are talking about.
Adult and Teens
It’s never too late to learn guitar. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard from my students how refreshing it is to take a break from the week and to just make some music.
Learn Your Favorite Songs and Write or Arrange Your Own
Ever wanted to get under the hood of your favorite songs? Wish you could create your own version of a Beatles song? Have a melody or some lyrics stuck in your head that you want to put chords to? I’ll be right there with you to do it all.
Learn How to Improvise and Jam
In my opinion, the two most important things for any music is to, one, learn to play songs from start to finish, and two, to be able to jam, improvise, and communicate musically with other musicians. I can have you taking guitar solos within your first couple of lessons.
Learn Theory in Context
Learning theory can get stuffy and intimidating really quick. Rather than teach songs and theory separately, I do my best to integrate the two together. When you learn a song in the key of G, we will learn about the key of G at the same time. You can see an example of that in my video series Coloring in the Open Chords. Check out this video on the Key of G.
