Glad things are looking up and you were able to get some form of practice/ playing in!

I can understand how easy it would be to fall out of practice sometimes. Life tends to have that effect on things. Glad you’re back at it.

That was excellent @marisa! Very enjoyable watching you play and listening to your vocals. I wish I had half your talent. Keep up the great work!

Fretboard Wizard covers ear training. It’s a separate cost, but it is well worth it.

Start out just working from D to barre chord using a metronome at a slow speed. Set metronome to quarter notes and play chord on first count, and then transition to barre chord and play on first count of next measure. Keep going back and forth. Once you’re able to transition on the first count of each measure (cleanly); then increase metronome speed by 5 bpm and repeat. Keep doing this until you’ve built up muscle memory and transition speed. It can be a slow process, but it works.

Lol – yeah I believe the backing track was the 2020 instrumental version that was just released this past week. Thanks for taking a listen!

It is fun to play, just wish that red light syndrome didn’t mess me up every time and make me goof up and slow down so much. Always wish I had longer fingers when I watch and listen to my videos. No piano fingers for me. Sigh ….
