Hello Chris. Glad you are here. Check out some of the FREE lessons on the site, then when you are ready to make the jump, join the TARGET program. It is without doubt the best instruction on the internet.

Hi Chris,

Welcome, neighbour. I'm in Hertfordshire and joined last week. You're going to enjoy it.

I think a lot of people have trouble singing while playing. It's an area I hope to improve as well.

Maybe some of the other members will offer their tips and tricks.

Hi Chris,

Welcome from across the pond. I don't believe there is anyone that has regretted joining the Target Program. There is so much here and Neil's lessons are great. (IMHO)

Hey Chris- welcome from the Colonies! Hope you enjoy your experience here and will give some consideration to becoming a TARGET member. It is without question the best money I have ever spent on my hobby (addiction?). Well, except for all my guitars! lol!

Cheers! :cheer:

Welcome to TG Chris you've made a good call in coming here, as has been said best value for money around to be had in the TARGET programme. Best teacher and great friends. Look foward to seeing you around.

Welcome from Australia mate. Like playing, singing to accompany is a matter of practice. How you sound is another thing, but coordinating singing with playing comes after you know the song really well so you don't need to think too much about fingering the chords. We have a couple of good singers here, try watching videos posted by Neverfoundthetime and DennisG for good examples of what can be achieved with practice.

Aloha from Paradise!

When I sing while playing, I either have to really belt it out or just let escape as a whisper.
