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.
