Acoustic Guitar Roots and Beyond - Workshop with Brooks Williams
Caffe Lena Saratoga Springs, NY
Share this event:
This workshop will look at the acoustic guitar techniques shared by Americana, blues and folk-rock. Expand your guitar skills by looking at alternate chord shapes, walking bass lines, and bluesy riffs that move up and down the fretboard. Extend your sound with a toolbox of strumming and picking rhythms, including the blues shuffle, boom-chick, and alternating bass.
All techniques will be supported by handouts (TAB and chord charts) and taught through specific songs. This is a fun, hand's-on workshop with lots of playing, jamming, and singing. It is ideally suited for guitarists who know how to play the basic 1st position chords (e.g. A, D, E, G, C, Am, Em, Dm). Bring an acoustic guitar, picks (if you use them), and a capo.
If you're looking for new ideas to spice up your guitar playing or original compositions, and if you want to learn some new songs, riffs and chords, then Acoustic Guitar Roots And Beyond is for you!
