Out on the Lake

This week's submission is a solo guitar flat picking tune. I was messing around yesterday with some stuff after I finished practicing for the day and sort of stumbled onto this little melody. I was thinking about adding other instruments, but I really didn't have time for that. I have been thinking a lot lately about the difficulties I have performing (or really playing in front of anybody at all) so I decided to use this to work on that a little. I warmed up a bit before hitting record but then decided to just go and play the tune without going back to make any changes. I was curious to see what would happen for better or worse and to see if I could stay in the moment and roll with the unexpected. I added some reverb and echo to make it sound a little larger since I really like the sound of acoustics played in large rooms. Overall I like the way it turned out and I think it's a nice snapshot of where I am right now playing wise. Looking forward to making more growth and progress over the year!
