I don't quite know if this counts as songwriting, but I'm certainly writing something. This one is less of a lesson and more of a "hey here is a fun thing - ask questions if you wanna learn how to do this kind of thing!" 2020-04-09 10:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post

I love Logic Pro X. This is a pretty vulnerable video showing how I get things going - sometimes it goes smoothly and sometimes its a struggle. This isn't designed to be a finished song. Also, I'm still getting stuff figur...

Hi everyone. I created this Patreon to have a little community of guitar players who are looking to improve.
