Easy Acoustic Guitar Songs For Beginners

You want to sound good on the on the first day. It encourages you to play more and learn fast. The best way is to find easy acoustic songs that have few chords and difficult parts to play. When you visit your local music store and look through all the music books how do you know which ones are easy to play. But you also want music that is contemporary and modern. No one wants to be playing "blowing in the wind" (sorry Bob) these days.

What I can do is give you some of the artists who write really great music that is constructed in a simple way. You shouldn't start out by buying an Eric Clapton album or perhaps Dave Gilmour's latest tome. I agree that they write and play great music but as a beginner you need to lower your sights. Do not look at music but rather look at songs that have a simple set up and are not too fast.

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.
So who is writing good playable music for the beginner guitarist these days? Here are ten groups and artists that write well written easy music. Buy the easy play music for these people and you will be playing great music very quickly.

• Coldplay
• 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 songs to play is to follow a modern contemporary course like Jamorama. As part of the course you will learn a great selection of modern great sounding songs arranged for beginners.
