How to Coach a Band with Stephen Mougin (Sam Bush Band/Dark Shadow Recording)

My guest this week is Stephen Mougin, guitarist in The Sam Bush Band and founder of Dark Shadow Recording.In this episode we talk about Stephen's work as a band coach. We chat about his training as a vocal teacher, what bands should be working on, including how they should be rehearsing, why preparing for the studio isn't really all that different from preparing to play live and how to listen to music in order to learn from it.There are so many fascinating insights that will be invaluable to bands and individual musicians, as well as to music fans who just want to understand more about the music they listen to.To find out more about Stephen's band coaching, check out the band coaching video on his website or visit www.stephenmougin.comThere's also plenty of info on Stephen's studio and record label atwww.darkshadowrecording.comHappy picking!Matt Hosted on Acast.
