ResoSummit 2009

ResoSummit 2009Rob Ickes has announced that registration for ResoSummit 2009 has begun – and sold out right away.

The annual weekend of instruction and immersion in resophonic guitar is scheduled for November 5-8, held at the Scarritt-Bennett Center in Nashville, with some events at The Station Inn.

Though they have already accepted advance registrations to fill the number of students they can accept, a waiting list has been set up for those who might still hope to attend. ResoSummit has been able to offer registration to people on the wait list each year, so get on there now if you’d like to make it in ‘09.

The faculty includes Rob Ickes, Michael Witcher, Andy Hall, Sally Van Meter, Dave Giegerich and Jimmy Heffernan. It is hoped that both Mike Auldridge and Cindy Cashdollar will also be teaching in November.

Sign up for the waiting list on the ResoSummit 2009 web site.
