In this video, Ayla Tesler-Mabe and Sami Ghawi will attempt to learn a pop song on the fly. The Guitareo Team has secretly chosen a song that neither of the two has ever played before. Ayla and Sami will have to listen to the song and decipher the chord changes, the melody, and the lyrics so they can perform it together at the end of the video. The song that we chose was “As It Was” by Harry Styles.

About Ayla Tesler-Mabe:
Ayla has been making waves in the world of guitar playing as a professional guitarist, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and composer, since the early age of 14. After only been playing for two years, her first YouTube video (a rendition of John Mayall’s “Hideaway”) put her on the map and kickstarted her music career. She has since been featured in Rolling Stone magazine, become a member of the Ernie Ball and Fender family of artists, and earned various Berklee College of Music scholarships. Musically, Ayla finds great pleasure in exploring the numerous avenues available to her through various styles of music, as seen through her work with Calpurnia and Ludic.
