WORKSHOPS THIS MONTH
Monroe
Jam Lab
Join Christopher Henry and Bluegrass Hall of Famer, David McLaughlin, for an exclusive, monthly deep dive into the timeless catalog of Bill Monroe. Each month we’ll focus on one iconic song and one powerful tune (instrumental) guiding you through the intricacies and nuances of Monroe’s unparalleled style. With expertly crafted study materials such as demo and practice videos created by your teachers, you’ll have all you need to experiment and explore the featured device we will be focusing on for the month. That's not all - each session we will welcome a special guest musician who will bring their own unique perspective and expertise, offering a richer, more immersive learning experience. During the workshop, students will have the opportunity to play and be coached by the instructors.
Whether you're looking to sharpen your skills, deepen your understanding, or simply celebrate the music of a bluegrass legend, this workshop is your backstage pass to the world of Bill Monroe.
