Hi Everyone,
Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live.
Little Song is another really lovely tune by American singer-songwriter, Sarah Jarosz. It’s taken from her debut-album Song Up In Her Head. It features chords I, IV and V in the key of D, standard tuning and capoed at the 4th fret. A basic travis picking pattern for the right hand makes it very playable for those who want to take their fingerpicking skills to the next level. The lesson includes a few pointers on how to add the lyrics as well.
Enjoy this level 3 lesson!

Hey Vanessa,
That's a great Little Song :ohmy:
I like your adding the singing section.
Would you approach adding singing in small section as you did here or was the small sections for demo purposes only?
I can never remember lyrics, so end up whistling when listening to the radio.
Yes, I'm one of those really annoying whistlers too
:S
This is another enjoyable lesson from you.
Thanks
Dermot

TGNessa,
This is SUCH a sweet little song. I REALLY like it.
How did you know that I needed a rest from Run Away while my fingers cooled off? Gosh that's a driven marathon of a song.
As usual, you've given us everything we need to make this sound authentic, EVEN how to approach the singing. I LOVE that. I LOVE that you're able to find so many great teaching points in a I, IV, V song.
Sustain, sustain and land well, I hear you too.
Another great choice for a lesson and thanks for thinking of us poor sods trying to get your more difficult lessons down by giving us a easier one this week.
Beautiful playthrough. You really bring out the sweetness in this pretty song.
Thanks Ness, I love your style.

Vanessa, I started looking at it already
I had to look at my question
I think I was referring to the way you sang only short parts of the song accounting for where
lyrics match with beats. I'm thinking now you did that only for explanation purposes.
:S

Great!! :cheer:
Yes, explanation purposes. I have several students who do like to sing, the thing I point out to them the most is whén to start a line. So knowing when that is, is quite handy! From there they usually pull it off.
Then again, one shouldn't even think about singing until they got the playing down automatically.
