Common Concerns from New Setlisters

“Am I too old to start learning an instrument?”
Not at all. Most Setlisters are adults starting fresh or returning after years away. With the right coaching and songs that inspire you, progress happens faster than you expect - and it’s never too late to enjoy music.

“I don’t think I’m naturally talented… will I still succeed?”
Natural talent isn’t required. Music is a skill you build step by step, just like learning a language or a sport. My coaching meets you exactly where you are, so you can make progress without pressure.

“I don’t have a lot of free time.”
That’s exactly why the Setlister approach works - even with limited practice time, you’ll see results because you’re learning songs you love. A few focused minutes with structure and support go further than hours of aimless practice.

“Will online lessons actually work for me?”
Yes - in many ways, they work better. You’ll learn in the comfort of your own home, stay consistent even when life gets busy, and have lesson notes and recordings to revisit anytime. Virtual doesn’t mean less personal - it means more flexible and accessible.

“I’ve tried lessons before and quit. What makes this different?”
Most traditional lessons focus on drills and exercises that don’t stick. The Setlister approach flips that - you build skills through the music that lights you up. When lessons are enjoyable, motivation comes naturally and results last.
