Do you freeze up when it’s time to play over a tune — even if you “know” the chords?
You’re not alone.
In this episode, I’ll show you how to simplify your mental approach so you can stop second-guessing every note and start sounding more confident, fluid, and musical over jazz standards.
You’ll learn:
How to simplify complex tunes into functional blocks (and stop getting lost in the changes)
Why pros focus on voice leading, not scale-switching
How to break free from theory overload and build phrases with intention
The mindset shift that helps you stop playing “correctly” and start playing creatively
You’ll hear real examples, guided improv demos, and practical tools you can use today to feel more relaxed and expressive when soloing.
