Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers

Welcome, guitarists, writers, and music fans! You'll find songs, lessons, insights, and, I hope, inspiration on this page. For more than 30 years, I've combined my twin passions for words and music into a multifaceted career as a musician, author, and teacher. I'm a grand prize winner of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, founding editor of Acoustic Guitar magazine, and author of <a href="https://jeffreypepperrodgers.com/the-complete-singer-songwriter/" target="_blank">The Complete Singer-Songwriter</a> and <a href="https://jeffreypepperrodgers.com/beyond-strumming/" target="_blank">Beyond Strumming</a>. I love helping others tell their own stories and create their own music—through lessons, workshops, videos, music camps, and university courses. By becoming a patron, you can help me create and share music and lessons. You'll gain access to videos, guitar tab and song charts, interviews and how-to articles, unreleased songs, and discounts on books and more. You can also join the Songwriter Circle or the Guitar Circle, for live group workshops every month, or even schedule one-on-one lessons with the Inner Circle tier.  I'm excited to build this community! Thank you for staying connected. JPR
