It's been a while since my first post but I'm back again, this time with some actual songwriting under my belt. I won't even remotely claim to know what I'm doing as a songwriter but in the last year and a half I've been in 3 bands, each one progressively more important to my personal musical development. My guitar teacher, Jeff Adkins, told me a few years ago "you're ready-you just need to join a working band!"
It's one thing to sit and play along to a "record" and another to actually play with live humans.
Thoughts on my next posts:
- the obsession with technical virtuosity versus creativity
- how to start from scratch (work in progress)
- letting yourself make mistakes
