Open the
Tune Learning Session AKA Slow Jam
Hosted by fiddler Cassie Norton with occasional guest teachers, the Tune Learning Session AKA Slow Jam is a welcoming pay-what-you-can weekly workshop open to all people who are interested in playing balfolk music, but are either completely new to it, or find our dance jams a little too fast to pick up the tunes. We will learn all tunes by ear, very slowly, first singing and then playing.
Come learn new tunes, and build confidence to join the jams! Open to all instruments, including voice.
Monday evenings 7-8pm (before the dance), see above for locations!
