Hey there. Just wondered if you had tried writing your own tune or song yet? This might seem daunting but actually writing your own music is a quite involved process and as you work through it you spend such a long time playing and rewriting little bits that it locks in. Obviously with no sheet music available this takes you in a different direction with your instrument. It doesn’t have to be Lennon and McCartney but it is such good fun.
I mostly write instrumentals but this week I’ve written a blues song which I intend to play at the next SCONES Virtual Open Mic session. This was a goal I set myself at the last 90 day progress party and of course with the blues at least you already have a chord structure to work from. It will be the first time I’ve played my guitar live to an audience since joining TAC in April. Nervous? Damn right! Whether you go down this route of writing a song or not I wish you all the best. You sound like you’ve just plateaued off for a bit rather than going backwards and this is natural. Push off in another direction, mix it up, perhaps tune your guitar to drop D or DADGAD and you never know what might happen. 🤘😎🎸
