Banjo Workshops with Ross Nickerson
Playing by Ear and Jamming Workshops with Ross Nickerson
Ross Nickerson has launched a new series of workshops focusing on playing
by ear, jamming with others, learning more about using chords, basic improvising,
and getting away from tablature. Ross specializes in breaking down the
many common obstacles unique to learning 5-string bluegrass banjo into
simple practical terms.
Other topics covered include exercises and drills,
picking, timing, memorizing, improvising, jamming skills, and backup!
This workshop will be ideal for intermediate students who need to raise
their skill level and get more direction. Beginners can come and take
notes and should come away from the workshop inspired with a much clearer
understanding of what needs to be done.
Ross will find ways to challenge
more advanced players and make sure they come away with some new understanding,
licks and tips. Space is limited, please register early to reserve your
spot!
...Hello Ross, I just wanted to say thanks for the workshop you held in Atlanta. It was
exactly what I needed and I think everyone else there felt the same way.
The way you were able to tailor the workshop to fit everyone's needs was
very impressive.
....I have been to other online instructional sites and various clinics and I am 100% convinced that your site and your personal instruction are the best out there. I would most strongly encourage anyone interested in playing (or in advancing their skill on) the banjo to take advantage of the multiple tools available through your web site and/or to attend one of your clinics. Nothing comes close to the “return on the dollar” they will get from your various teaching methods. Many thanks again for all that you have done to help get more enjoyment from the banjo. Bob Cameron

Testimonial
from Joe Bonsall of the Oak Ridge Boys.
"The main thing I learned
is that I have so much more to learn!! It was a great time really. A four hour
banjo class and a jam afterwards. Ross Nickerson is incredible! One of the worlds
best. I plan to hook up with him for some private lessons while in Tuscon later
on this year.
