Chloe
Resistance:
*Drop D tuning (tune E string down to D)
Misery Business:
Please work with Amy to find a reliable mix voice to use in the chorus of this song. If you go for full chest voice you will sing flat and we don’t want that. 🙂
Please work on you bass part for Misery Business with Zeal this week.
Harlee
Resistance:
See if you can memorize your lyrics for next week.
Misery Business:
Keep working on the bass part with Erin.
Make sure to practice with the transposed track on this webpage. (Emi)

I shot this video in the band room using all 3 keyboards so you can see exactly how to switch from one the another. Be sure to turn your volume down for the pre-chorus and up for the riff on the top keyboard.

We recorded a solo video this week but I prefer the video that was posted a couple weeks ago. I think it outlines the solo section perfectly. If you want me to post the video we made this week let me know. – Marti

Resistance:
Your insticts were good on this but please listen to the track and study the kick pattern and the form in general. We will stop at the false ending after the bridge.

*Here is a very detailed tutorial to get you started.
*Taylor Kennedy will join our next rehearsal to give drum support on this song.
