MBC's Jam-Skills for All Instruments Program

Over the years we have offered many classes focused on jamming from the banjoists viewpoint. We figure that all our students could benefit from an opportunity to focus systematically on the many aspects that go into successful jam participation. MBC now offers a special Jam Skills Program for All Instruments. Our Jam-Skills offerings are positioned to give you the opportunity to try out what you've learned in class during the staff-led jams on Friday and Saturday evenings.

These  are our Jam Skills offerings for 2021

• How to Jam Workshops on Thursday evening and during the "Demo" slot on Friday afternoon. These workshops focus mainly jam etiquette and procedures. There are separate workshops for the bluegrass and old-time genres
• Developing Ear Skills for all instruments (taught by Jeff Burke)
• Tips on Soloing for all instruments (taught by Jeff Burke)
