Guitar & Music Camps
In 1995, I began teaching guitar, claw-hammer banjo, old-time fiddle, and performance at various music camps in the US, Scotland, and England.
My guitar courses have included acoustic Blues and slide guitar in standard and open tunings, right hand picking technique, song accompaniment, the music of Mississippi John Hurt and of Delta Blues legend Robert Johnson, among others.
The camps I’ll be teaching at this year are listed in our calendar section.
Workshops I offer at weekend and week-long gatherings are listed on Workshops page.
Over the past 20+ years, I have been honored to have become a sort of legacy instructor at Guitar Week at the Swannanoa Gathering on the campus of Warren Wilson College in western NC.
I have also taught at:
- TradMad Camp – Traditional Music and Dance at Pinewoods, Plymouth, MA
- Common Ground On The Hill at McDaniels College in Westminster, MD
- WUMB’s Summer Acoustic Music Week – Geneva Point, NH
- String Along Weekends – Milwaukee, WI
- Blues Week at the Augusta Heritage Days – Elkins, WV
- Menucha Blues In The Gorge – Portland, OR

- Common Ground: Scotland – Ayre, Scotland
