We will learn various popular bluegrass tunes from artists such as Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, and many more. You’ll also learn basic skills like ear training and music theory to help you navigate tunes you may not be familiar with, and give you the essentials to sound great even on a tune you have never heard before!
We are excited to enlarge our community and nurture our students, in that spirit, we are happy to offer you a 15% discount for bringing a friend to sign up for the first round of 2026 classes!
