Topic: guitar and mic (9 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Gday
recently ive started playing a song or 2 live for the first time ever(scary)
im looking to use my amp for my acoustic/electric but would also like to
add my less than nice voice to the mix(a bit of reverb hides the defects a bit)
is there a way that i can join the 2 together before they plug goes into the amp?
eg mic and guitar then into single plug on amp.i have a roland 80 amp.
thx

Grah
you seem to have a huge network of musical contacts.
i like a bit of jazz Diana Krall is my go to at the moment.
one of my favorite songs is beyond the sea which is more swing type of jazz.
i also enjoy country swing. most music is pretty good.

Really good Peatle, I particularly liked the Knoxville Town one, Americana style, those ladies nailed it. I would love to perform music like that.
Jan
i think Americana style would suit your voice.

Grah
yeah they did a few songs on the snoopy theme
would be good if you kept the xmas one in mind and introduce it to
your audiences come the time,as its a cracker.
i think only a hit in NZ.i guess a smaller market here and many songs
got a chance to be heard nationally.
rock on

Thank you all again for comments,i know im far from perfect and know my limitations.
But it is lovely to share songs with you.
I have many a chordie song on a memory stick in my car,so be rest assured all you guys are getting
more listens that you think.i often put it on when i have passengers and they get good comments.
i know some dont put songs on chordie, because of lack of feedback /conversation but i can assure you they do get heard!

Many thanks to everyone who had a listen.
its all about conversations,you play a song i listen ,then i say hey i`ve got a song too, and you listen.
its all about respect for anyone that is prepared to put themselves out there.
i take on critiques and it gives me something to think about.

Re: UPCOMING TOPIC, DISCUSSION & SUGGESTIONS FOR MAY 2025 - FOLK (11 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
There seem to be a lot of folk groups in NZ nowadays.
The ones ive seen are acoustic playing trad folk or folk rock, leaning toward bluegrass and amerciana or celtic
a real good mix of styles,but they seem to to generally call themselves folk
