Singing over your solos and knowing what notes sound like is really important and like he said establishes and improves your sound to ear connection. David Gilmour is a master at this and he does it all the time, for example during end solos on Wish You Were Here.
It’s also really good for phrasing. People talk in complicated rhythms everyday without much thought, so there’s already a lot of built in rhythmic intuition in our vocals. That’s how I see it at least.
My first ever open mic night with my band, we got in pretty early and wrote our name on the list. We had like an hour and a half before going up, and we decided to go to a bar across the street. One bar turned into a couple of drinks at 2 bars, then a beer at the open mic venue before we went up. It’s safe to say we were all pretty buzzed when we got up. I’m happy to report that as the lead singer I didn’t crash and burn, but I still look back at it as a lesson. Our drummer was a little loose on time and we just didn’t sound as good as our practice sessions.I was way too much in a feel good state, and my vocals were not as expressive or bright.Nowadays I keep myself to about a beer per hour, with plenty of water!
“Your enjoyment and success is directly proportional to the amount of preparation you’ve put in beforehand” is up there for the most helpful advice I’ve ever been given. It may seem painfully obvious, but myself and countless others didn’t automatically understand that stage fright, for those who don’t have an anxiety disorder, is a physiological response to lack of preparedness presenting as a stress reaction to perceived failure. As it turns out, the more work one puts in ahead of time in preparation, the more confident they will be and the less likely the person will fail
I needed to hear this thank you. I'm a long suffering self taught guitar player and I am forever fighting burnout and searching for direction in practice.

WORKING ON THE CONNECTION! I'm a keyboardist, but this is still my biggest tip to anyone who wants to learn to improvise... and I feel like its even applicable outside of music. Prior to beginning the process of teaching myself piano (with an improvisatory focus) I had a tough time connecting my ideas in conversation with how to communicate them with others, but after a decent but of singing solos and trying to play piano underneath, I found it even hemped build connection from the vocal part od my brain to actually expressing it. When I'm away from an instrument, I can think up absolutely perfect solos and parts in my head, however translating them to an instrument is a different story. Starting with the vocal part of your brain by singing starts that.
Hearing your advice and encouragement to overcome burnout is wonderful. I really hope you share more; it really helps me feel better and ground/remind myself that I need to take things in smaller steps. So thank you. Very much.
Wow, just found you and this is great! I've been playing for yeeeears, but just had an enormous 'Ah-Ha!' moment when you said that about singing the notes as you play. It seems so simple, but it totally feels like that just unlocked something in my brain lol
My biggest hindrance to my progression on guitar is when I play, I am always either recording or writing. So I'm using the skills in my toolbox to write music but that keeps me from progressing. I used to learn other artists music and play along to their albums which I think is one of the best ways to progress; and I have found if I'm not doing that than I'm stagnating.

Forgive me if this is inappropriate, for example if you're a world famous song writer, but have you considered asking e.g. a bandmate or someone else who you admire musically and knows your playing for an honest opinion what you're lacking and should focus on? I think an outside look may be what you need, you sound self taught which can be tough
I had to prepare for some summer gigs way out of my comfort zone, and it dawned on me the only way I could manage the pressure was over prepare and know I did everything in my power to nail the gig. Those goals combined with the fear of doing them took me to a new level of focus. Practicing just to practice can just lead to drift and overwhelm. Some great tips in this video i'll check out more on the channel 👍
Two medium strength beers works well for me. Anything more than that and my fretting fingers start to swell badly, or the distance between the frets shrinks. Not sure which.
It is also very hard and worthwhile playing something at a really slow tempo.Was in a jazz big band(was on trombone at the time not guitar) and playing the piece Lil Darling.Playing it at the slowest tempo(where at least two re order versions with different tempos)is really hard to keep in time,especially because of the stocatto notation, good training
The best thing Berkley school of music has to offer is the real book. Back in the olden days you walked into a mom and pop music store and asked for a Real book and had to wink at the guy behind the counter. Now you can buy them over the counter. I've got an old one!!!
I liked your encouragement to broaden musical influences instead of sticking to one genre when practicing. My preferred genre is metal, but the bands I highly rate, you can hear the classical and varied influences in the riffs…things like muse and avenged sevenfold using what were essentially baroque violin arpeggios in their song structures, very noticeable progressive rhythms in Metallica or Jinjers tracks etc etc
good advice here for sure. been playing for 36 years now and this is wise info. i changed to diff styles of music and went back .... and he is bang on the money.
I was playing drums in a band with my friends years ago at a local Sushi place, and they gave us all the beer we could drink, and set up a tip bucket while we played.....needless to say, that lead to some horrible...uh...music. The best/worst moment of this situation was once during a show, my buddy walks over to the edge of the patio in the middle of a song, still playing guitar, and voms everywhere, then walks back over like nothing happened. Legendary.
I knew this was gonna be a great video Really good stuff man, I found this really helpful. I’ve been struggling with perspective at the moment, and it’s advice like this that makes me realise that I’m really still at the start of my journey, and just have to start putting some good habits in place and take things one step at a time Thanks so much, Bryn
I been struggling with creativity, it’s been long months with nothing on hands, with this advices I can now know I need a break, study more, and be persistent
My advice would be to do something different. Maybe change tuning, or even put the guitar away and write something electronic on GarageBand or whatever. Pick up a banjo… anything. :)
Two things that may help you: 1) get better at music. Listen to stuff, analyze it, play it, pay attention to why a song works 2) force it. Creativity is absolutely something that can come from necessity combined with hard work. Make yourself deadlines you can't miss, easiest with a band. E.g. tell your band you have a song ready next week and then get one ready. There are so many stories of how great artists write songs, it's often focused on getting the job done. One of my favorite bands was missing 2 or 3 songs for their album, they just wrote them on the spot before heading into the studio
The best motivation would be learning to play songs with your band, the more songs you learn, the better your dexterity becomes without you even noticing it. Then you can do daily 10-15mins exercises like the spider walk.
Playing over the changes: Learn JAZZ STANDARDS, whether you're into jazz or not. Learn to comp over the standards, learn the HEAD, learn saxophone BEBOP heads, learn the phrasing. Improvise targeting chord tones and using other methods (scales etc). Sing when you're soloing, don't let the shapes guide you. Learn your key signatures, your intervals BY NAME (C-E is a major third), not just by shape, ie learn to SIGHT READ. There is no shortcut, that's what the greats do, that's what you should do.
"Study Pop music" in one hell of a good (and often overlooked) tip. People will go "nah, I'll only listen to the pure", but, hey, as stated here, keeping an audience interested is an art in itself.
great video and sound advise. Thanks. Would love to see you playing some tracks from Texas Flood album. I still remember first hearing it in a music shop and buying it there and then. A music/life changing moment for me.
idk if i sound strange for this but one of the best ways i find to practice is learning a song then playing it in a different style (sound, structure, etc.). not necessarily so different that it takes away from the original piece, but discernable enough that you play differently to how you would otherwise. for me at least, it's surprisingly really helpful and i find myself learning and improving techniques, as well as giving me inspiration for my own song writing because i tried something different and it sounded unique :)
Great video even for a newbie like myself. Many of these things seem like Mt. Olympus at the moment, but I love knowing that these may be goals for me one day.
I am passionate about several things, (outside of family, and watching sports, and playing games) and it is having those three huge passions that helps me take a break when I need it. Making music is one passion, but making things is another (crafting with wood), and photography (and video) is another, and that includes old film cameras, DSLR's, and even a drone. That means that while I'm working with wood, I'm not thinking about being stuck with the music - and I'm not stressing about those photos I just took, or just processed, or being in a rut, or whatever - because each one of those passions lets me keep going with being creative, yet in a very different way, and when I reach a goal, I'm usually ready to go back to whichever other one was giving me some grief/stress, and that stress is gone, and I can move forward with much greater ease. Perfect practice makes perfect, so practice whatever it is that you can't play, unless you really just need to connect with the music and feel it, then just play for a little while - we all need that sometimes. Cheers!
I haven't found in your videos one about setting up a home recording studio. Not for selling songs but more for self feedback to evaluate what our sound is. Hope you make one, or point me out to a video about it. Thanks
"there's an art form in catching people's attention" Damn. This sentence resonates with me. So many people snob pop music without realizing that "hey, if those pop artists are good at what they do, it's for a good reason"
I really wish I could play stuff out of my head on the guitar. Every time i try to play on my own its just pointless noodling or playing parts of songs I already know. Feels like a super power I will never have.
Sammy, I have a question regarding growing as a musician in perspective. I want to learn from different types from music, dare I say even country, yet I find it difficult to immerse myself into styles I don’t find any initial affinity towards. Any tips on digesting the yeehaws and the Baby Baby Yeah’s?
I like sammy. (sammi?) (sami?) Anyway, this guy is great. So fun and so smart. And that amp his dad built is so unbelievably cool. All good. I love Telecasters. All good here at this channel!! I've had beers. Rock on!
For me, I can’t sweep pick or tremolo pick (on chords I suck, single strings I’m fine with), and I’m not that good at fingerstyle/flamenco but I can fake my way behind that.
Going mad over that gorgeous pink strat! Is it modded or did you get it from fender complete with lipstick pickups? That aside, amazing video! Going through college for music right now and your tips and tutorials have been so helpful, especially as someone who struggles with music theory.
Bro I can straight up sing and play electric love when I’m home alone, as soon as I’m in a band setting my vocal range is almost cut in half I hate it.
As a dancer I agree with the booze advice: if you aren't sure, don't drink before the gig. Skip rope against the stage fright or jog it off. Love the pink guitar. ♥️
one tough lesson to learn: practice smarter, not harder. a solid 15 minute practice session focusing on any particular skill can be far better than hours upon hours of mindless noodling
my alcohol limit for performance is one drink. that relaxes me sufficiently without affecting my ability to play. anymore than that and things get too loose.

George Benson does too I think!
