Double Stops and Drones - Take Your Playing to the Next Level
Join National Fiddle Champion and professional bluegrass/country fiddler Megan B. Lynch for our next online group workshop!
Megan will show you some great double stop patterns in many common keys (as well as some uncommon ones!) and demonstrate how to add droning strings to give your playing a fuller sound. Megan will cover double stops in several positions, but never fear, the entire fingerboard will be worry free when you get done with this workshop! She will also teach a couple tunes which will make great use of the new double stops you've learned. This is geared for more advanced beginners as well as intermediate/advanced players.
Tuesday, March 20, 5-6:30PST. Workshop registration is $20. Recording is easy and encouraged!
