Posted on 01 February 2010

Happy New Year!

Yup, it’s been that long since I’ve written in my blog… but for good reason…

You’ll probably remember I promised I’d go on vacation after the launch of my latest 12-disc “Musician Transformation” & Gospel Music Training Center launch in December 2009 (which sold out, btw).

But that’s not the only reason I’ve been gone…

Yes you can! Play a top-charting pop song with just 4 chords!

Posted on 05 November 2008

I’m off to support my grandma as she has surgery today in Long Beach but I wanted to post this short lesson before I leave.

I just posted a mega 33-minute video so this lesson will just give you an abbreviated version of the video. What I really encourage you to do is stop what you’re doing and head over to view the entire lesson. Dozens of comments have already come in about it since i posted it last night (…don’t forget to leave me one as well!)

The tutorial teaches you how to play a popular song with just 4 chords! And they’re all seventh chords too (major, dominant)… [more]

Posted on 30 October 2008

circle of fifths smallFor the past couple of days, we’ve been talking about slow ballads. If you’re just now tuning in, I recommend you check out both Tuesday and Wednesday’s lesson.

Today, I’m going to show you how to take it even further! Right now, you know how to play a very popular ballad movement from the past two lessons — and the best part is that you’ve only used TWO chords!
