Steve Greene Workshop ~ The Blues and Beyond
Bernunzio Uptown Music
2:00 - 3:30pm

These workshops start with basic blues playing and continue from there.

Some of the topics include:

- how to create new chords and lines
- increasing your technical skills
- how to listen more deeply in a group setting
- the art of not taking one’s playing too seriously

It helps if you already had a little experience with blues playing.
If you’ve been playing a long time this is a good workshop to add more spice to your playing.
It is always a fun time with (new) jokes, and new ideas.
All instruments are welcome

P.S. 1.5 hours only $15 - wow - !
