Press Play At Home: Watch Charlotte Day Wilson Perform A Lithe Version Of "I Can Only Whisper"
Learning to write a half-decent song is one thing; learning to sing and play guitar simultaneously presents another series of tripwires to avoid.
Budding musicians know the struggle: How do I keep a consistent tempo? How do I not go too loud or too breathy? How do I weed out bum notes and excessive string scrapes?
To those ends, Charlotte Day Wilson's below performance is a masterclass in control. She negotiates the relatively elaborate chord progression with ease; her phrasing is fluid and natural. Plus, it doesn't hurt that "I Can Only Whisper," from her 2021 album ALPHA, is a hell of a song.
