About the Book and CD

This book incorperates everything in Get Started along with 100 songs (see list below). More information coming soon.

“But how will I know how they go?”

We've got you covered! We're recorded every song in the book as a "Song Clip"—a minute-long recording optimized to help you learn the melody, words, and qualities that give each song its unique 'soul'.

You don't even need our book to use this resource. Just head over to our songs section and click on a song. You can also click the links in the song index at the bottom of this page. Note the "break" at the end of each song: this is there to give you a chance to try singing the song by yourself, or to practice playing melodies on your instrument.
