This four week workshop will introduce you to everything you need to get started on your banjo journey. You will learn the clawhammer technique\, how to tune your instrument\, basic chord shapes\, alternate tunings\, and a few songs that will help you get familiar with your instrument. This is a beginner level workshop and is perfect for anyone who is brand new to music or brand new to this style of banjo. 4-weeks $120 3 pm – 4 pm on Tuesdays Carolyn is an old-time banjo player and songwriter from Glens Falls who has been picking and singing around the Capital Region for over ten years. She got her start as a performer working at Caffe Lena and is now a regular host of the Monday open mic.

Her 2022 debut album earned her the title of Folk Artist of the Year at the Capital Region Music Rewards. Her sophomore release\, Take it Easy (2024) was recorded live with her band and captures the warmth\, spontaneity\, and camaraderie that define her sound. \n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						General\n						$120.00\n					\n				\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				More Information			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Folk Club Kids\n\n				American Roots Bluegrass Celtic Family Folk\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 15 • 10:30 AM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		After School Folk Ensemble with James Gascoyne and Oona Grady\n\n				American Roots Bluegrass Celtic Country Folk Workshop\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 15 • 2:30 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Bluegrass Jam\n\n				American Roots Bluegrass\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 15 • 7 PM
