In this course, Nick will cover ideas and techniques used to create solos for tunes and songs. Using his proven method, Nick will guide you through the steps of taking a basic melody and turning it into a great Bluegrass solo. We will focus on playing a few well known melodies in open G, also in the up the neck second position G, and finally in the Key of C in the first position. We will also cover basic back up concepts, and use them in the songs we learn. Students should bring a recording device, and tablature will be available.
Nick Hornbuckle has been playing the banjo for 35 years, and teaching for 30. He has taught at several music camps in Canada and the US including Rockygrass, the California Bluegrass Camp, Wintergrass, the 108 Mile Music Camp, the Alaska Bluegrass Cruise, and the BCBW. Nick has been featured in Banjo Newsletter, and has published three banjo instruction books. Nick tours and records with the Juno nominated Bluegrass band, John Reischman and the Jaybirds.
