TRAVIS PICKING - For Guitarists

TRAVIS PICKING - For Guitarists

Thursday, April 1 @ 6:00PMThu, Apr 1 @ 6:00PM

A four week course of 4 x 1 hour sessions. All the rage in the folk clubs, Travis Picking is named after the country guitarist Merle Travis - a fingerpicking style that predominantly features the right hand thumb skipping strings to form bass lines. We will focus on building up simple Travis Picking patterns week by week, working on tone, separation of voices, rhythmic drive and applying what we are learning to some great songs. This style is a wonderful approach to acoustic guitar! It's easy to begin with and with practise, becomes effective very quickly. All participants will be given FREE ACCESS to my 'Start Travis Picking' Video Course. If you have already bought the video course and wish to attend these sessions, please get in touch and I will offer a reduction on the price. I will also be making short summary videos at the end of each session to cover specific points that we wish to remember. For upper-beginner to upper-intermediate players. Come along and discover the world of Travis Picking!
