This class is open to singers and instrumentalists who want to learn how to play in a band and gain confidence in their performances. We will discuss how to arrange music together in small and large ensembles, how to find one’s voice within a group, and strategies for becoming more comfortable on stage.
During these sessions, we will work on songs in both a large ensemble and in two smaller bands. Students will also have the opportunity to practice performing solo during song share circles. At the end of the last class, we will host a song share with sign up open to the public, and kick off the night with the repertoire we’ve worked up as a group.
Along the way, we'll work on musicianship and ensemble skills, tackling performance nerves, and just have fun! Repertoire will be a range of songs that lend themselves to band arrangements. If you have song suggestions, please offer them! Open to any singers who can carry a tune, and strumming instrumentalists (guitar, banjo, mandolin, bass, ukulele, etc.) who know a few basic chords. Other instrumentalists are also welcome.
Feel free to email [email protected] if you have any questions or ideas, or want to figure out if this class is right for you.
