Ariel Posen ( @ArielPosen ) is one of those artists who catch you off guard and quickly become one of your favorites. Not only that but he is a fantastic guitar player. In this episode of the Fret Success Guitar Show, Dan talks to Ariel about playing guitar, songwriting, and the process, ideas, and motions behind his latest release "Reasons Why". Hear some previews of the new album in this episode. "Reasons Why" was released on September 8, 2023, and he is about to embark on a tour including Europe, US, and Canada. This includes dates in Calgary and Edmonton in Alberta, Canada. I have tickets to see him at the Calgary show, very much looking forward to that.

In 2019, he wrote seven songs for his first album, How Long, and recorded them all, plus some instrumental interludes to fill things out. For his sophomore effort, 2021’s Headway, his songwriting surplus resulted in eight songs being left off the final project. For his latest, Reasons Why, the Canadian singer-songwriter and highly regarded guitarist wrote 30 songs, ultimately choosing 10. #arielposen #guitarist #calgary #guitarshow #songwriting #johnmayer
