Workshop Notes:
2 days: Sat 10am - 6pm, Sun 10am - 4pm
The Country Blues Guitar will be focusing on a wide variety of styles and techniques. We will explore delta blues, bottleneck slide playing, the playing of Lightnin' Hopkins, Mississippi John Hurt, Rev. Gary Davis, Skip James, Blind Boy Fuller, Mance Lipscomb and other legendary bluesmen. Right and left hand techniques will be discussed as well as understanding the fingerboard. The music will span from blues to rags.
Students should know first position chords and feel comfortable playing an alternating bass (bum-chick!! similar to Miss. John Hurt or Chet Atkins). This is usually classified as an advanced beginner!
I will supply written tab/music as well as a CDR of the material to be studied.
You are encouraged to bring recording devices to record the sessions (audio and/or video). I will be teaching the group as well as each student individually. The Workshop is being limited to 15 students.
