Beautiful Chord Movements in the style of JOE PASS

ever feel like this sometimes?

 

even after years of practice, we all have those moments where it just doesn’t work.
you lose the form.
you can’t play the melody ad hoc.
you stumble through a solo.

and when it happens, it can feel devastating.
like all those hours of practice didn’t count.

but here’s the truth: jazz was never meant to be about playing everything perfectly.
it’s about allowing ourselves to mess up, to keep going, and to be surprised by what happens next.
sometimes, right after a “failure,” a beautiful line appears out of nowhere — one you couldn’t have planned.

jazz is a process, not a performance. it’s about staying open, playful, curious.

welcome to the jazz guitar coffee club

every sunday morning at 06:00, while the coffee is brewing, the club drops a little spark of inspiration straight to you. think of it as your weekly musical caffeine shot — short, practical, and energizing.

instead of long, heavy lessons, you’ll find simple building blocks you can use right away:

  • a new  voicing

  • a cool groove for you to record on your looper

  • and a bebop line or a concept for exploring sounds

make it yours. depending on your level, tweak each idea to fit you.

  • just starting out? play one part and enjoy.

  • more advanced? loop it, vary the rhythm, move it through keys, or reharmonize.

less is more — one step at a time. each idea is small enough to digest, strong enough to grow your playing over the long run.

and you’re not alone. in our community space, you can share your own playing, exchange feedback, and get inspired by what others are creating. it’s a friendly corner of the internet where jazz guitarists cheer each other on.

no pressure, no tests, no endless courses. just:
coffee in one hand, guitar in the other, and a fresh idea to keep your playing alive, joyful, and growing.

welcome aboard — i’m glad you’re here.

ps. this is still in process, growing week by week. if you want to be part of it from the start, your first month is free.

you probably don´t need another scale. you just need to use the ones you’ve got.
