June edition of Silver Strings available

The latest issue of Silver Strings is now available from Angie’sBanjo.com. This is a free, monthly online publication dedicated to providing both encouragement and instructional tips for folks learning to play the banjo beyond “a certain age.”

The June edition includes a feature on The Lovell Sisters, a trio of teens who have become seriously accomplished bluegrass performers, a second installment of tips for learning banjo solos up the neck, and Nancy Nitchie’s remembrances of the early days of Banjo NewsLetter, founded by her late husband Hub, and published now by her sons Spencer and Donald.

Instructions for subscribing by email are found on the Silver Strings site, and once you subscribe, you will have access to all past and future editions of the magazine.
