I have to weigh in on the “eyes closed” approach mentioned by @Mike-Gaurnier . I’ve been doing that for a few years and it’s pretty much of a habit. I rarely play with my eyes open. Occasionally I need to look at my fretting hand for hard transitions or at a sheet of lyrics if I’m unsure about them, but for the most part I play and sing from memory. I usually memorize songs pretty quickly.
