GUITAR LESSONS For Singer Songwriters: Be A Better Self Accompanist!

... If you are a singer songwriter looking to get stronger and more fluid on the guitar, so that you can accompany yourself, I can help you. I'm currently teaching 15 musicians that have strong writing and vocal skills.

My approach is to help you articulate guitar accompaniment as simply & beautifully as possible, regardless of genre; in order to present your original songs live and/or recorded. Some covers are also considered as templates for the study of harmony, arrangement, and technique. Each student has final cut on their material.

My teaching style focuses on enhancing & informing your intuitive process. Theory is presented in small increments and applied immediately to works in progress that are being analyzed. A good goal, imho, would be to:

^ Play clean chords with traditional & original voicings.

^ Move chord changes with complete control & fluidity.

^ Create 4-6 right-hand techniques such as: strumming, arpeggios, pluck strokes, double stops,
dampening, tapping, and various classically considered fingerstyle techniques.

^ Learn to play on the guitar, the melodies that you are hearing & singing, in order to connect what you hear, to the ends of your fingers, as well as the fingerboard.

^ Express confidence, learn how to relax, and authenticate what you as a writer are stewarding through you.



If you have the desire to raise the bar on your guitar playing for the purpose of writing & performance, please contact me. Thanks.

Have songs,need a female voice to sing them.

This is NOT cheesy American Idol type music or terrible current R & B music.

Please send any samples of your voice-it doesnt have to be a professional recording-and I'll get in touch.

"Guitarist/ writer Matt Szlachetka is definitely one to watch."

- Vintage Guitar Magazine July 2009 Vol. 23 No. 09

"At the forefront of the band's sound are the vocal harmonies of lead guitarist Matt Szlachetka and sticks man Kane McGee. While each is a more than competent singer in his own right, together, the sum is greater than the parts, and their harmonized vocals add depth and texture tothe impressive musical backdrop provided by Szlachetka's excellent guitar work and his talented bandmates. Szlachetka's inspired solos are guitar pyrotechnics at their finest."

Me: write. You: talent and instruments. Influences: Shawn Smith, Eleven, Pearl Jam, INXS, NWA, Pac, Handel and every artist that has ever lived. Honesty first: I'm one of those stand-up comedians who leads a shameful, schizophrenic, secret, double life as an aspiring serious song writer. I've written some barn burners, some ballads and some stuff in-between. Need some immediate acoustic guitar accompaniment with a Sean Hannity satire song. Again, sorry for the multiple artist-identity disorder. I can send you some Mp3 rough demo/a capella stuff.
thanks for reading!
