We had a great practice today, running through probably close to 10 new songs and choosing for to work on for our next chapel. They are:
Let God Arise Key of E https://youtu.be/TrKdcfWwhLM Chord Chart
- Keys - one on organ and the other something electronic
- Drums - This song is a good workout. Try to do EXACTLY what this drummer does in every section of the video. Its a bit of a listening exercise, but a great learning exercise too.
- E. Guitar - You can have lots of fun with this song. You're carrying this song :-)
Deep Cries Out Key of E https://youtu.be/CkJH3zGM-cs Chord Chart
- Drums - Same idea as the last song - this song will make you sweat. Try to do EXACTLY what this drummer does in every section of the video. Its a bit of a listening exercise, but a great learning exercise too.
- E. Guitar - Learn the solo at the beginning. In the verses you'll be chugging the chords. Chorus and bridge you be playing full power chords
- Keys - one of you on organ an the other doing something electric sounding
Lion and the Lamb Key of G https://youtu.be/rT-HulZ6TQA Chord Chart
- Drums - With the exception of the 'hiccup' beat in the verses (don't do that), learn this song EXACTLY as this drummer does it in the video. Again its a good exercise. Notice how he has certain beats that he's consistent with in certain sections of the song.
- Keys - one with a piano/pad sound. The other with an electric sound like they have going in the first verse. We'll have to find the right patch.
- E. Guitar - see if you can learn the solo licks. You'll be playing power chords in the chorus.
Great are You Lord Key of E https://youtu.be/4EDr0GVhFFg Chord Chart
- Drums - notice where the drummer does NOT seem to play. Listen how he builds from there, and how he (again) has certain beats for certain parts of the song. The consistency the beat is key for the drummer and the bass player to stay in synch. Practice the builds.
- Keys - again, the beginning and the bridge are integral parts for you to know. Maintain a E bass all the way through the bridge.
- E. Guitar - Swells in the quiet parts of this song, but when it gets big, you're playing power chords!
