Monthly Jam Class - Learn to play Bluegrass!

On the 4th Thursday of every month, we hold an open class where we teach Bluegrass songs.  Everyone's invited!  $5 donation at the door is requested.

You should already know the basics of your instrument -- simple chords, how to strum, pluck, pick or bow it.  We provide printed materials, including chord charts, tablature, lyrics, and music stands. You'll also get links to recordings that you can practice at home with.  Expert Instructors will guide you, and we'll strive to learn 2 or 3 new songs each session.    

Bluegrass music is all about "repertoire".  If you don't know any Bluegrass songs, you won't have much fun at a Bluegrass jam, and we have lots of Bluegrass Jams around here! 

Open to players of banjos, guitars, mandolins, fiddles, dobros and upright bass.  Some instruments available for rental, if needed.
