Guitarists are very often self taught and will often memorize patterns, strums, chords, and songs without really knowing why a song sounds great or how it was designed to evoke certain emotions. This course will show you the steps and tools that famous songwriters use to craft a song on guitar. You will learn some basic music theory along the way, but you can skip any section that you want, and come back when you’re ready.
Songwriting Simplified for Guitarists has sections that can help you identify which music keys best suit your voice, and show you how to change any song’s key into your BEST key.
This course also has a Spotify playlist entitled: “Island & Blues: Songwriting Simplified”
Feel free to go listen to the music we will be studying and think about how those songs might be changed to fit your own personal musical style.
Beginner Players : Don’t worry, you skip the “advanced” sections if you want to, and we will discuss finger pain and solutions to “small hand” issues.
Intermediate players: We are finally going to put some logic behind the music you’ve learned.
Advanced players: Learn how to use “modes” to make a song truly unique. Finally learn what it means to say a song is in the “Mixolydian Modal key” for example. And what it means to “borrow” chords from other keys.
Who this course is for:
- Beginner to Intermediate Guitar Players with songwriting aspirations.
- People who can play some chords but don’t really know how to connect them well in a song.
- People who want to learn how to write music like their guitar heroes.
- People who want to understand songwriting rather than just memorize it.
