Howdy Friends! Welcome to the Banjo Earth School. Your new banjo adventure begins here! (Please Read This Entire Post So You'll Know What To Do Next) And after reading, introduce yourself in the comments and let us know where you are from. My goal in this community is to help you start making music on the banjo and having fun. Better, faster, and with expansive curiosity! It doesn't matter if you are just starting, or looking for new banjo horizons. You will find the eternally flowing well of creativity here. We have three primary courses for you to learn from. These are located in the Classroom section of the group. Banjo Earth Absolute Beginners Course - For beginners, I recommend starting with this one. It provides the tools to start making music on the banjo fast. It also serves some great foundations to develop solid habits as you progress in your banjo journey. Banjo Earth Bluegrass Basics - Scruggs style bluegrass banjo is the basis for everything I've done in music. It establishes a great base for you to find your own voice and interests in the banjo. Plus it helps you start making that sound we all love and cherish, bluegrass! Banjo Earth World Banjo Styles - I've now traveled to 10 countries with the banjo and absorbed everything I've learned into my music. Bluegrass is my heart, but world music is my passion. China, India, Brazil, Peru, Mexico and others will take your banjo and musical curiosities all around the world! Open up spiritual and spatial possibilities by exploring these world musical styles through the lens of the banjo. Lesson Vault - Each week, a new lesson will be added to the Lesson Vault for you to access and learn from. They will have 2 versions, beginner and advanced, to make sure you get the most out of it.

World Banjo Styles Course is Open!
La Cucaracha, one of my favorites, and a Mexican classic, is the first lesson in the world banjo styles course. A new song will be added each week to learn, taking from music traditions all over the world. Let me know if there is a song you would like to learn.

Banjo Earth School Workshop this Saturday!
I will be conducting an online workshop this Saturday morning at 11 am for all the Banjo Earth School students who are not local to GSO NC. If you are local, we will be doing a meetup at Bur Mil Park at 1pm to jam and workshop. I will send everyone a link to the online workshop. It will be recorded, so if you aren't able to attend, you can watch it later. Hope everyone's banjo picking is coming along great! Cheers, Andy

New Lesson in the Vault! The G Scale Roll
Check out this new lesson. I first learned this technique from Bill Keith many years ago and it was a huge unlock in learning the banjo neck. Check it out and let me know how it goes. Keep jamming! aE https://www.skool.com/banjo-earth-7873/classroom/2d1732a0?md=28b8c1f63cdd4627a89b5c2f1f68d8c9
