Open banjo instruction -- pickers needed!
Patrick Costello, a hero of public-spirited music education, has launched The Old Time Banjo Project with some of his students.

To take part in the project, contact me at [email protected], choose a lesson and film a short video workshop. For example, let's say you choose to cover the C Chord. All you would have to do is introduce yourself (for example, "Hi.

If you are worried about teaching a specific technique think about doing something simple like covering how to attach a banjo strap or how to make a D7 chord.
