Blue Night from bluegrasscollege.org
The folks at bluegrasscollege.org have put together a video sample from their latest online lesson. The song is Blue Night, sung by Tim O’Brien, with instrumental solos taught by Bill Evans (banjo), Rob Ickes (resonator guitar), Tyler Grant (guitar), Matt Flinner (mandolin), Mark Schatz (bass) and Megan Lynch (fiddle).
The sample shows brief segments from the various instruments, and the complete lesson contains two breaks each, with both audio and video at slow speeds for each instrument.
You can find more details – and a free sample lesson – at bluegrasscollege.org.
