Not writing the songs you want
You're not alone! So many songwriters struggle with this and so did I! What you need is a framework from beginning to end that no matter where you are in the process you can reference and depend on.
Element One: Voicings
Before you think about melodies and lyrics to your songs, you need to think about voicings!
We'll discover how breaking out of the same old chord shapes to transform the way you write. Helping make your songs more commercially appealing and open up new melodic possibilities.
Element Two: Strumming
Whatever decade and genre you listened to the most growing up, thats your default pattern!
Time to built consistent rhythm and rid yourself of the same old strumming patterns.

You'll learn on how to use songs and absorb their melodies, ideas, hooks, and more! Understanding their key, general techniques and styles used in each song.
