Practice Nights

WEEKLY MUSIC PRACTICE

Practice makes you feel GREAT!!! Senior Citizens Club, Cnr Denman Camp Rd and Totness Rd, Torquay, Hervey Bay.

BAND SET UP AT 5:30 PM

COOL COUNTRY MEMBERS ARRIVE AFTER  6 pm – Other singers are welcome !!!

Cool Country members come along to practice their songs (singing or playing instruments) (or both). All singers should bring 4 songsheets for each song that they want to practice. They need to be chorded (for the band players /members to read). Song practice is designed to help the band to know your music, and help you to get several things right (for any future stage performance).

Important things to know are:

How to start singing your song – musical intro, get the chord right, know the strum and drumbeat etc.

Singing during the song – atmosphere during the sentences, singing to your audience (not the word sheets), practicing getting your timing ‘right’  etc etc. There’s more – smile for a happy song, look sad for a sad song  – EASY!!

HOW TO FINISH YOUR SONG. So you and the band finish the way YOU want them to.

Easy isn’t it ?   (it is after you practice !!!)
