Learning the Guitar

I love making music. Since the day I was born, I’ve been good at making lots of noise. I grew up with choir practice every Monday, which evolved to band practice both in school and outside of school. It was only about three years ago that I picked up a guitar with a real intention of playing it. I saw a friend play “Blackbird” one summer night and decided this was something I needed to be able to do. I learned the song that night and have been playing ever since.

The goal of this blog is simple. I want to inspire as many people as possible to play the guitar while also providing them with a starter pack of songs to play. By posting weekly songs for inspiration, in combination with some basic guitar knowledge/history, I hope to help people fall in love with making music and give them the skills to do it. This project is something I wish I would have had to help me on my guitar learning journey. I will also benefit from the creation of this blog, as I am well aware of my lacking music theory/history knowledge which are things I would like to add to my posts.

Now, for those of you interested in learning, you will need…

  1. A Guitar 2. A pick 3. A good attitude
