More About Me
You learn best when you're having fun. It's not about intricate scales and theory, it's about success. To feel the pulse, to hear the chords, and weave the melody, all wrapped up in a banjo roll, that's what fires the soul of a banjo picker!
Basic skills are essential, and basic skills will get you music success. i'll show you how to develop solid basic skills that sound and feel good!
Jamming is what most people imagine themselves doing when they take up a Banjo. Yet, jamming skills are mostly neglected in banjo instruction. Jamming is very much a social interaction with very definite protocols and yet it is fluid and takes shape as the songs and the jam session itself unfolds. I'll give you the guidance, principles, and clues you need to be a more successful banjo picker, and most of all to have fun.
