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.

Duration: 60 minutes

Purpose: Prepare the voice for singing, improve breath control,
and increase vocal range.

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.

Use call-and-response technique.

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.
