Guitar, Ukulele, Bass, or Banjo...We can help you reach your unique goals, whether it's to play songs by your favorite female artist, learn to write your own songs, or play lead guitar on stage in a band.
Our students have also learned songs by many popular female artists:
Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, Tori Kelly, Katy Perry, Miranda Lambert, Kelsea Ballerini, Pat Benatar, Heart, Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, Avril Lavigne, and many others.
Girls interested in the singer/songwriter style will first learn the same basic musical techniques and concepts as any other student. But with an early emphasis on chords, key signatures, playing while singing, using a capo, and most importantly RHYTHM.
Acoustic players will also explore fingerstyle techniques. And all during the process you will learn your favorite songs!
