Songwriting lessons

Have you ever thought about writing your very own song?  What makes a song a hit song? A song that either you will sing, or one for an artist to perform? How about taking songwriting lessons? 

Songwriting

Songwriting is a great way to start your musical career, especially those who don’t have a strong music background.  If you do play an instrument, why not enhance your musical performance by playing a song you wrote?

Let’s Start At The Very Beginning

My style of songwriting is easy, to help get you started right away on day one. Like Julie Andrews said or rather sang in The Sound of Music’s, Do Re Mi,” Let’s start at the very beginning.” 

I’ll teach you how to understand chord progressions and the sounds used in today’s popular music.  You’ll also learn to write lyrics focusing on writing lyrics that area designed for a singer.  

You’ll also learn how to showcase your talents by developing a great melody and writing inspiring lyrics. I can teach students of all ages and levels in the music genre of their choice: pop, country, rock, jazz, etc.

Songwriting comes down to two things: Music and Lyrics.  We will work on both. For the lyrics, you only need a pen and paper. For music, you will need something to play the notes on. If you don’t play a musical instrument, I recommend apps that have an electric piano. 

If you are already songwriting, I’ll provide songwriting tips to enhance your music.  We will work through new music theory specific to creating songs. If you already have a chord progression that you like, I’ll help you get started writing a great song. 

Lessons are private songwriting lessons.  You will find the costs for piano lessons in all cities I serve (Smyrna, Dallas, Marietta, Roswell, Kennesaw, and online) are competitive and affordable.
