Want to play pop songs on piano without memorizing full arrangements?
You're in the right place. In this video, I’ll teach you two simple left-hand piano patterns that work for any pop or rock song - and you can use these for jazz, country... even classical!
✅ These patterns use just three fingers (1st, 2nd, and 5th)
✅ They sound great whether you’re playing by ear, reading chords, or ignoring the arrangement entirely
✅ You’ll learn the same techniques used by pianists like Billy Joel, Elton John, and literally thousands of working musicians
I use these patterns every single day—when I don’t like what's on the sheet music, when I’m playing from a lead sheet, or when I’m playing by ear.
Whether you're a beginner or recovering classical perfectionist (like me), these left-hand patterns are going to give you freedom and confidence to just sit down and play.
