Our Patron-voted Song for August 2019 is… (Patreon)

{Patron-only post}

Aloha, Patrons!  

A warm welcome to the many new Patrons who've just joined us. Please see the bottom of this post for tips on joining our private Facebook group (the best place to get support and ask questions) and other Patron communities.

Our August 2019 song poll winner is "Homeward Bound" by Simon & Garfunkel. 

I hope you'll join me for the Live Lesson for this song on Thursday, August 22 at 5:30PM Pacific Time (The schedule is a little different this month since August has 5 Thursdays, so I took this week off for my birthday week 🥳!  Remember you can find all Patron events on our Patron Google Calendar).  Patrons at the $5+ tiers can tune in for the Live Lessons. If you'd like to change your pledge and join us, click here for help on editing your pledge. Lesson info will be posted next week to $5+ Patrons.

I'll share a preview of my arrangement in Wednesday's 5@5 Instagram livestream (follow @cynthialinmusic), and I'll share the chord chart to $3+ Patrons after the lesson.  All Patrons will get access to the recorded lesson next month.

Thanks to everyone for voting and sharing your song suggestions in our August 2019 Song Poll - you can go back to the poll to keep commenting and up-voting your song suggestions for next month. 

Look forward to seeing many of you online on Thursday!

About the Song of the Month

For each of our monthly song vote winners, I teach a Live Lesson for $5+ Patrons and post a Patron-only chord chart for $3+ Patrons. I then create a Patron-supported Play-Along to share on YouTube. Here's a playlist of recent Patron-supported Play-Along videos. The Live Lesson will be available for $5+ Patrons for the first month, and all Patrons will get access at the beginning of the following month. Click here to find all available Live Lessons.
