I made a Patreon!
After six months of sharing weekly music videos and getting a great response from folks who take the time to leave supportive comments, send tips for tabs, sign up for lessons, or ask about ways to offer support, I’ve finally gone and done it: I’ve made a Patreon!
For my YouTube content, I’ve worked out a weekly video schedule where I’ll release a tutorial or commentary-style piece the first Sunday, a fingerstyle piece the next, an “other” video the third - could be bouzouki, band, or whatever - and another fingerstyle video the final week.
All Patreon supporters will not only have early access to these videos on the Friday before the official release, but they’ll also be able to download mp3 versions, and I’ll have an exclusive unaccompanied song video just for them, along with a monthly newsletter and occasional bonus content. I’m also offering transcriptions and charts at the second tier and higher, a special song request for the third tier, and a monthly private lesson for the last.
