personalised guidance through the minefield of songwriting, including necessary theory and technique
Find yourself through songwriting. Lessons are structured to suit your individual interests and needs, and cover everything from the basics of form, content and structure, to more advanced and personal work such as composing unconventional or more interesting accompaniment. I furnish you with the basic, non genre specific skills, and guide you to find your own unique voice.
We can also work on production, if you’re making a record, performance techniques and how to book your own gigs, record, tour, get press, and establish an online presence.

Acerca de Indigo S.
4.9
(72)
Indigo has been working in the performing arts since she was biting ankles, first as a dancer and vocalist, and later as a guitarist. She's composed music for and/or sung dozens of international television commercials, spots on Law and Order and songs in Films premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, and as a lead guitarist and vocalist, toured the US, Canada, Europe and Iceland, extensively, performing in hundreds of theaters and rock clubs around the world, including-- Madison Square Garden, BAM, The Beacon Theater, Music Hall Of Williamsburg, The Bowery Ballroom, Club Nokia (LA), The Santa Barbara Bowl, The Chicago Theater, Baby's All Right, The Mercury Lounge, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass (SF), Pickathon (Portland)
As a teacher, Indigo's method has, at it's core, a commitment to the idea of teaching a man to fish rather than giving him a fish, and every student, regardless of age or experience will be taught to understand, first and foremost, how music works, so that he or she comes away, not only with the skills to play the material covered in the lessons, but, eventually, the ability to teach themselves any other material they're interested in.
With an emphasis on ear training, her natural approach to learning theory, makes even the most wary or challenged student understand with ease, and find pleasure in the process of learning. Rote memorization is eliminated and replaced by a deep understanding, which grows naturally, while technique improves alongside it. Students quickly find themselves able to play, sing and understand things previously only dreamed of.
These universal building blocks of music apply across all genres. Technique will be tailored to your specific interests, and from the start, a portion of each lesson will be devoted to learning the material of your choice.
Indigo also specializes in coaching songwriters, and can, in a gentle and non-invasive way, help to guide you through the process of both mastering craft, and establishing your own individual voice as a writer.

Indigo is AWESOME. She has everything I'm looking for in a great teacher - empathy, kindness, humor, a wealth of expertise, musicality, mastery of multiple styles, creative point of view as an songwriter/artist herself, theory, physical technique, and somatic perspective. From multiple angles, she is able to address all areas I want to improve, as well as identify areas of growth potential that I wasn't even aware of, while making it all SUPER approachable by breaking things down with great demonstrations, explanations, practice techniques, and a structured plan. I feel like I can just relax and enjoy my practice, taking one step at a time, knowing that I'm in such good hands instructionally. I'm improving really quickly and looking forward to continuing to work together for a long time. Absolutely book this teacher!!!

I've been taking lessons with Indigo for two years now and intend to continue. She's been a tremendous asset in my evolution from beginner guitarist to performing with a covers band and now advising me during the recording of my first album. She has a wealth of knowledge to share , is a master at her craft and is a fantastic teacher. I highly recommend Indigo for wherever you are on your musical journey!
