About Nathan

My name is Nathan Beausoleil, or NLÖV3 is my artist name. I have played solo, with bands, and currently actively tour with a tribute band called Private Eyes. Singing and guitar and my main passions, but I also really enjoy playing the piano, bass, drums, and used to play sax and trombone. I don't sight read music much anymore and instead fell in love with music theory and charts vs note for note reading. I was an engineering major turned film and music major the University of Texas at Austin. I appreciate all types of music, grew up on pop punk 2000's, classic rock, and pop. However, soul and R&B are some of my favorite genres because of the chords and vocals mainly. I definitely gravitate towards vocal heavy pop R&B these days, but still love rock and blues. Influences include John Mayer, Usher, Guns N Roses, Brian McKnight, Led Zeppelin etc.

About the lesson

Lesson plans vary depending on your skill level and which areas you'd like to focus on. Students best served would be: intermediate / beginner guitar players, beginner/intermediate vocalists, people who would like to sing and play guitar simultaneously.

In a nutshell, we would pick some songs that you love and move you, then break down the techniques, chords, and melodies to fully understand and master the song!

Sample Lesson Plan: Guitar and Vocal Integration

Duration: 60 minutes

Level: Beginner to Intermediate
Focus: Chord Progressions, Vocal Warm-ups, Singing While Playing Guitar

1. Warm-up (10 minutes)

Vocal Warm-up (5 minutes)
Purpose: Prepare the voice for singing, improve breath control,
and increase vocal range.

Exercises:

Lip trills

5-note scales - Sing ascending and descending scales, using different vowels

Breathing exercises – Teach diaphragmatic breathing

Guitar Warm-up (5 minutes)

Exercises:

Chromatic scale (on one string, 1-2-3-4) – Play slowly and evenly, focusing on finger placement and posture.

Open chord review (C, G, D, Am, Em)

2. Song Study: "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King (20 minutes)

Goal: Practice strumming and singing simultaneously. Focus on rhythm and vocal phrasing.

Song Overview:

The song is in the key of A and uses a simple chord progression (A – F#m – D – E).
Emphasis is on keeping a steady rhythm while singing.
Step-by-Step Breakdown:
Guitar Chord Progression (10 minutes)

Teach or review the chord shapes for A, F#m, D, and E.
Practice the transition between the chords slowly, ensuring clear, clean notes. Focus on smooth transitions and timing.

Integrating Vocals (10 minutes)

Sing along with the student, focusing on maintaining pitch and phrasing.

Break the song into manageable sections: Verse, Chorus, Bridge

Use call-and-response technique.

3. Technique Focus: Strumming and Voice Coordination (15 minutes)

Goal: Develop coordination between playing guitar and singing. Practice the rhythm and sync.

Focus on Strumming Patterns (7 minutes)

Practice strumming patterns to a metronome while changing between song sections.

Work through the song, ensuring they can keep the strumming consistent while singing.

Voice and Guitar Coordination (8 minutes)

Ask the student to play the chords with a basic strumming pattern while I help with the vocal melody if needed.

Once they are familiar, they sing and play at the same time—first very slowly, then gradually increase tempo as they become more comfortable.

Provide feedback on timing, tone, and posture.

4. Performance Practice (10 minutes)

Goal: Gain confidence in playing and singing in front of others.

Mini Performance (5 minutes)

Perform the song from start to finish (or part of it) while playing and singing. This builds confidence.

Encourage them to focus on smooth transitions between the guitar chords and maintaining a steady vocal delivery.

Feedback and Adjustments (5 minutes)

5. Cool Down and Wrap-Up (5 minutes)

Vocal Cool Down (2 minutes)

Gentle humming and lip trills to relax the voice after singing.
Stretching: Neck, shoulders, and arms to prevent tension.

Guitar Cool Down (3 minutes)

Play a few simple chord progressions or favorite riffs to end the lesson on a fun, relaxed note.
