5 String Banjo Time with Stuart
An integrative all-comers banjo workshop for all levels. From gravity- fed (first time players) to experienced folks. We will learn a simple old time tune and play it at our collective levels. We will dive deeply into all aspects of achieving great banjo tone and lock in to our own rhythm. I will share my ideas with open heart and clear listening on how to achieve these goals. Come jam with me! We will be sure to have a bunch of fun together picking up some practical banjo tips.
