Why You'll Enjoy Learning Power Chords In Your Guitar Lessons
Beginning in your very first guitar lesson, you can expect your instructor to introduce you to a handful of common chords. Chords are the foundation for playing the guitar, and you'll use them as long as you play your instrument. While your guitar teacher will likely start with what is known as open chords, they may soon introduce power chords to your lessons. By definition, a power chord is a chord in which you play the root note and the fifth note in one fluid motion.

About Me

Music Is My Therapy

My dad once told me that even before I said my first words, I used to "babble" sing along with the music on the radio! I still haven't figured out if it is true or just a joke, but one thing I know is that I still love music today. I get excited about new releases from my favorite singers and bands like others get excited about their birthdays! I also enjoy writing music, although I only do it as a hobby and simply enjoy writing as a creative outlet. While I don't plan to post any of the songs I have written on here, I decided to start a blog all about my favorite topic -- music. I often want to talk about it so much that I thought I would share my music knowledge on a blog for everyone to read.
