My first year in Nashville
Saturday, August 25, 2007
What a learning experience it has been! I spent my first three months checking out several guitar jams around town. Blues jams in particular. Met a lot of folks and some good players. In December of last year, I joined up with Mia Jones and No Luv. As a Country Rock band, I was able to keep working on my Rock chops while learning Country Guitar at the same time. We've played a lot since I joined. Venues like The Gibson Showcase, Wildhorse Saloon, and on Broadway, (in the heart of Music City.) I've also played in Printers Alley at The Fiddle and Steel, (well known guitar bar here in town.) Also several songwriter's venues with Kecia Burcham. I've about got the intimidation factor out of my system, until I have to get up after a great player and then it starts all over again! I love living here! My guitar playing has improved so much in the past year. The main reason is because, if I need inspiration, or if I think I'm better than what I really am, all I have to do is go out and hear a great player in town and it's back to the woodshed again! That has been the key for my desire to become a better player. Which means practice, practice and more practice! As a musician, I can't think of a better place to be, than in Nashville Tennessee! (Could this be The Hook?)
