If you’ve got a yen for learning to play the five-string that has been sitting in a closet, your time has arrived!Even if you don’t have a banjo, your time is now! We can help you find one if you’re keen to learn to play this magical instrument. Our program is an introduction to the five-string banjo for absolute beginners (be aware 0 a four string banjo won’t do for this course). Together with instructor Duncan Perry, you’ll cover banjo setup, tuning, and care, then focus on learning the folk style playing popularized be Pete Seeger, and explore the clawhammer style used by country and old-time enthusiasts like Grandpa Jones, Riley Baugus, and Rhiannon Giddens. The goal is to set you on a path to developing your own style of banjo playing. If you don’t have access to a playable five-string banjo, we’ll put you in touch with Duncan who can advise about buying one. After all, every day should be a banjo day!
