A Conversation & Lesson with Melanie Faye: Phrasing, Influences, Jazz Chord Embellishments, Teaching

👉Direct link to this video’s companion resources on Patreon (TAB .pdf & Video, lesson on chord names and the number system): In this conversation and guitar lesson, we discuss Melanie’s development as a musician, her unique style of playing guitar, dynamics and phrasing, her influences, teaching and learning, visualizing the fretboard and getting out of the box, adulthood, self-employment, and balancing social media, business, and creativity. During the lesson segment, she teaches us note by note both the melody and chords of her 25 second original song demo entitled “Fan Art” - she walks us through all of the nuances of her unique phrasing that really bring the melody and chords to life. Throughout the interview and lesson I’ve added our fretLIVE fretboard animations, TAB, and related video and audio clips to help you get the most out of the learning experience.
