Introduction to Flatpicking

Picking across the strings for the melody is in many ways easier than

Efficient Chords and Inversions

  If you are ready to start learning more about chords, this workshop
discusses chord patterns, how chords can be used for melody, and
how to quickly make a chord's inversion...a very useful tool

2:30 – 4:00

Blues and Boogie
(dAD tuning,  all levels.)
   We will learn both Blues in E and Boogie in D. Time will be spent
with the shuffle rhythm, simple improvisations, and a rockin' version
of Shortenin' Bread.   Always fun for all.
