LET'S VOTE! January 2019 Patron Song of the Month (Patreon)

{Patron-only post}

Aloha Patrons!

Quick reminder to submit a video for our Patron Open Mic Giveaway!  Thanks to everyone who  already shared a video - it's so much fun to meet you and see your uke progress.  Deadline is next Thursday, so take a moment to make a video this weekend. :)

Welcome to our monthly vote!  Please note that Voting closes Monday 1/14 at 11:59PM Pacific Time.

How the Song of the Month works

If you're new, here's the TL;DR version of what happens with the Song of the Month:

1. All Patrons vote!  (in this post!  see the song options below!) 

2. I create a Chord Chart ($3+ Patrons) and teach a Live Lesson ($5+ Patrons) for the winning song, and I'll record a Play-Along to release on YouTube.

3. All Patrons receive access to the recorded hour-long Live Lesson the following month.

Last month's Song of the Month was Something, be sure to check out the Live Lesson!  This song was quite challenging - My goal is to make the arrangement to suit as wide a range of players as possible.

THANK YOU PATRONS for directly supporting the creation of these higher production Play-Along videos!

HOW TO VOTE

1. Click on the checkbox for as many of the song choices as you like below - yes, multiple votes are allowed. Please note - as soon as you tick the checkbox, the vote is counted. (you can look at the ticker on the right!  sometimes the ticking doesn't work on certain devices - in this case, try your laptop or desktop vs tablet or mobile)

2. Comment with ONE SONG that you’d want for next month's tutorial.  Next month's song choices are taken from your comments, so make your voice heard!  Please keep it to one song suggestion per person.  

3. Upvote other people's song choices by clicking the heart on their comment. Upvotes are an easy way to double your voting power!  Your upvotes matter, so I encourage you to come back and look through your fellow Patrons' comments to upvote.

Cynthia's Choice - Kacey Musgraves

I'd like to use my choice this month to highlight the artist that I listened to the most last year.  Kacey Musgraves is a cross-over country singer with fantastic songwriting, and her beautifully produced album Golden Hour delivers on so many levels.  If you're a Kacey fan, please comment with a song of hers that you'd like to learn. 

Thank you, and happy voting!

xo cynthia.
