Tutorials in SongWriting

Hello!

Do you think you guys can give songwriting tutorials please? 

Hi, Demi!

Yes, we plan to! Do you play an instrument, or have a songwriting partner who does? 

- Camille

Yes I do! I play guitar, ukulele and a tiny bit of keyboard! 

Perfect! It's so helpful to play an instrument when you're writing. And keyboard is especially useful for building chords around your melody!

I really look forward to shooting a tutorial on songwriting once we're back in the studio. Do you have some specific questions and concerns I can include when designing those lessons?

Maybe these questions: 

How do I get the inspiration to write a song or melody?

How do I phrase my lyrics to make it sound nice?

How do I make lyrics that can emotionally move the audience?

Thank you for those questions, Demi! I'll include those within my plan!

Hi, Demi! I wanted to make sure you saw this:

Jumping in here to ask a few question, or more request as to exactly what chord progressions, melody, and really just basic people should know when getting into song writting. THank you

Thanks, Gerardo! Will address that on Saturday!

Camille, 

Can you share the resources for writing chord progressions and organizing songs?  I have written some things and i am learning to put them to music.  I am a brand new guitar player, so i cant exactly accompany mysel just yet.
