In this course weâre going to focus on the creative side of fingerstyle, and reveal how Thomas builds his fingerstyle arrangements. This will show you the process Thomas uses and give you the tools you need to get there too. You might think âI donât know how to create musicâ, but itâs actually far simpler than you think! There are guidelines underneath the creativity. Youâll recognise the groundwork from thousands of songs that youâve heard, and weâre going to learn to write songs and arrange them together.

Introduction
â
Writing and arranging is certainly not out of reach, and not even that difficult. You can learn how to write songs for yourself and I will guide you through that process.

Scales beautifully intertwined with chords
The key elements we set out in this course are the chords we typically use in popular keys for fingerstyle, then the scales we use, and finally we learn how you can put these two elements together. These lessons will demonstrate to you how the two intertwined can flow together to create the chordal harmony we are striving for. Once weâve worked through all the core elements, weâre then going to guide you through the creative process on the fly, so that you can see exactly how Thomas does it, and how you can then do it too. So come and join Thomas to work through this process of creative fingerstyle songwriting together.
