Blues musicians of all levels of skill have allways appreciated the opportunity to learn from the finest Professional Blues musicians Australia has to offer.
The Melbourne Blues Appreciation Society is providing that opportunity in the form of musician workshops. Taking place on a Wednesday night once a month, beginners & proficient players will be able to learn from the blues masters themselves.
The 2 hour June workshop will be conducted by Jimi Hocking, who will do a brief re-cap of the theory he talked about in his previous workshop (last year) and then focus on the electric guitar and physical playing techniques. Jimi will also do an introduction to blues mandolin playing and then demonstrate the various playing techniques with a band.
Although primarily for musicians, workshops are open to all punters - you may just want to start learning a musical instrument!
