Want to get better at playing the guitar? How about taking lessons from one of the best?

Nita Strauss, who you may know from backing rockers such as Alice Cooper, has launched an online guitar teaching program that is open to anyone at any skill level. Called "Rock Guitar Fundamentals," Strauss' system comes in three tiers. The first is for beginners, the second teaches theory, and the third gets to learn some pretty cool techniques. Sound like something to do during this pandemic lockdown? Head over to iwanttoplayguitar.com where she's running a 50% discount for a limited time.

NITA STRAUSS with ALICE COOPER July 20th, 2019

Jade was born and raised in Detroit Rock City and grew up listening to Led Zeppelin, The Who, Tom Petty, etc. In high school she tried multiple different styles from cheerleader to goth but couldn’t do gymnastics and couldn’t get her eyeliner dark enough. She settled on jeans and a t-shirt, playing sports and making normal situations overly awkward. When she’s not making bad jokes on the radio you can find her shanking golf balls into the woods on the golf course and drinking beers at the bar. She has a strict two shot limit when it comes to tequila. Jade enjoys writing and talking about everything happening in Detroit Rock City, our Detroit sports teams, golf, and her fear of robots.
