Intermediate Kit
ABCDEFU - Gayle
This epic rock song is all about how you perform it! You can perform this as the grunge rock song it is OR you could take the lyrics and strip it back to get into the emotions of the song... the possibilities are endless!
Live Version Inspiration
This version is from Gayle's first TV appearance on the Jimmy Fallon show. In this performance, you can clearly hear guitar, piano, drums and vocals. This performance is really good at showing the changes in sections and how you can take a repeated chord pattern and groove and add to it using texture and dynamics to not only build the song but tell a story.
Chart
This chart is a basic lead sheet and it shows the Bass rhythm, tempo, structure, and chords. Think of it as your blueprint for your song!
​
