iVideosongs: In the pocket
Jamming on the Rush song, "Tom Sawyer," is a 10. Having Alex Lifeson of Rush show you how to play it, is one louder.

That's what we do. iVideosongs is all about this new kind of musical experience, a personal connection that happens when you learn your favorite songs from the original artists who wrote and performed those songs.

The artists are legends and legends in the making. We also have some titles featuring killer studio musicians, because not every artist is involved yet and some others have passed to the great gig in the sky. In every case the songs are complete, accurate and shot in stunning, lush, high definition video. The combination rocks.

iVideosongs is an affordable and practical alternative to expensive private lessons and the poor quality song fragments, phrases, tab and tips scattered around the Internet. With artist and instructor titles, and also tutorials downloaded from iVideosongs, you can indulge in the experience any time you want, as often as you want, anywhere you want.

Beauty in a complete song.

Think you'd play more often, and enjoy it more if you knew more songs?

We'll show you how to play the complete song. Each iVideosongs title is broken into segments, so you learn the intro, verse, chorus, bridge and outro. Plus each includes an accurate performance, so you can check your progress against the complete track.

Oh, we can show you how to play a chill riff, bend strings, play outside the Pentatonic box and a boatload of other tips and tricks too. But it is a lot more fun to learn those techniques while you're mastering a song.

Rock it piece by piece.

It's tough to learn a song front to back. Even for two minute thirty second ditties let alone for all the guitar parts in "Sweet Home Alabama." So we break each song into bite size pieces. Learn the intro. Get it down, move on to the verse and then the bridge and so forth. Once you've got each section nailed, string them together…and you've got the complete song.

The song is everything.

So we get it right. That means every title is spot on accurate, just as it was originally written and performed. Then it's up to you if you want to improvise and do your own thing with it.

Under the influence.

Was Rush channeling Huck Finn and Becky Thatcher when they wrote "Tom Sawyer" or did they have something else in mind?

iVideosongs' artist titles include an interview segment, where the inspiration for the song gets revealed. Or the artist talks about what was going on in their head when they wrote it. Its cool insight that often casts songs in a new light, and suggests a new meaning to lyrics you might have heard a million times.

The rhythm method.

Leads and percussion and keyboards too. Plus songs for acoustic and electric guitars, keyboards and drums. No cowbells though. At least not yet.

Power players.

iVideosongs has titles for beginners and intermediate level players too. Songs matched to your skill level today and where you want to be tomorrow. All designed to get you there in the fastest, most enjoyable way possible.

Three chords and the truth.

Blues. Country. Pop. Classic rock and newer stuff destined to be classic. Take your pick, you can't go wrong.

How you want it, when you want it.

iVideosongs is on your schedule. Because titles live on your computer, iPod or other device, you can play them any time you want, wherever you want. So you're not on a music teacher's schedule, or anybody else's.

Rich and lush.

iVideosongs titles are shot in rich high definition video. The lighting and production are fantastic. The effect is stunning, intimate and personal.
