The way I Select easy acoustic guitar songs
You want to sound good on the guitar on the first day. This makes you motivated to play more and learn more. The best way is to find easy acoustic guitar songs that have few chords and difficult parts to play. If you have ever been to a music shop you will know how many books there are to help you play easy songs on the acoustic guitar. But you also want music that is contemporary and modern. No one is interested in playing old songs from the 50’s and sixties anymore.
What I have done here is show you some great artists who write good music that is easy to play. You shouldn’t start out by buying an Eric Clapton album or perhaps Dave Gilmour’s latest tome. They might write brilliant music and you want to play their music but you need to learn the basics first. What you need to start on are songs that are not too fast in pace and have only a few chord changes.
No beginners can play fast music well so do not try it. You might think you are the new Bruce Springsteen but honestly he has more skill than you would believe and playing fast is a skill.
let me show you some good contemporary bands that write songs that a learner can play? The list here is a good starting point for bands and artists that write good songs that are easy to play. Buy the easy play music for these people and you will be playing great music very quickly
Coldplay
U2 (choose carefully)
James Blunt
Razorlight
Tracy Chapman
Gabrielle
Van Morrison
Scouting for girls
The Feeling
Any country music artist. (They write simple well written songs that tell a story but do not require great virtuosity)
The other way to find easy acoustic guitar songs to play is to follow a modern contemporary guitar course like Jamorama. The songs are arranged for beginners but actually sound great and work well.
