Hi! I am the creator and owner of SoundPaint LLC. Here we explore sound and sometimes write music! I help self taught musicians discover their confidence in their playing, and eliminate the fear that they're not musical by creating a foundation of intrinsic music theory, understanding of their unique music psychology and growth in their musicality.
Why Musicians Need Community
|
Hey Reader You’re putting in the hours. Practicing. Writing. Grinding. But let me ask you—how much of your musical growth is happening with other people? Here’s the truth: you’re not wired to grow alone. None of us are. Real growth happens when we’re connected to others. Here’s why:
But it’s not just about growing—it’s about finding your unique sound while learning to mesh with others. The right community teaches you how to stand out without copying—and how to blend without losing your voice. I go deeper into all of this in my latest YouTube video: “Why Musicians Need Community.” If you’ve been feeling stuck or want to take your growth to the next level, this video is for you. Click below to watch it now: And if this message resonates, I’ve created a space for musicians just like you. Check out my brand new community SoundPaint Online Community for Musicians. If you want to grow, collaborate, and discover your best music, THIS IS THE WAY! Your best music is still inside you—let’s bring it to life together. All the best, Amy What is SoundPaint? SoundPaint is a long-time project I've been developing for the past 10 years. The dream was to build a safe community for creatives who want to explore their musical potential in a way that goes beyond traditional music education. And so in August 2021 SoundPaint Academy was created! I deeply believe that music & songwriting flourishes when a musician is given the freedom to explore sound & creativity. This is where sound makes you laugh, cry, think, anything we humans can reach with our emotions, and express ourselves with color and light at a supersonic rate. Notes are our colors, and we use them to paint the full gamut of what we feel. Feel free to follow me in these places... THANK YOU TO ALL MY WONDERFUL SUBSCRIBERS!! YOU'RE THE BEST!! HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY EXPLORING MUSIC WITH ME! |

Hey Reader Today’s newsletter is all about you. Yes, you—the one quietly making music, deep in your own world, trying to figure out how to share your gifts without stepping into the uncomfortable glare of the spotlight. I see you because I am you. Here’s the thing about being an introverted musician: you often feel like you’re at your best when you’re alone, lost in the music. And while that solitude fuels creativity, it can also turn into isolation. I get it—reaching out, networking, and...
Hey Reader It’s time for some tough love. If you’re serious about songwriting, you cannot keep tiptoeing around music theory. Imagine moving to a country where you don’t speak the language. Sure, you might scrape by with gestures and a phrasebook. But try asking for directions to somewhere specific—you’re stuck. Frustrating, right? That’s exactly what happens when you sit down to write a song without understanding music theory. Music theory is a language. A powerful one. And if you’re not...
