At the IBMA 2012 World of Bluegrass conference, the ArtistWorks Academy of Bluegrass All-star players draw quite a crowd.

Academy of Bluegrass Review
Mon, 08/20/2012 - 1:00pm
A recent student of Bryan Sutton's flatpick guitar lessons has written an Academy of Bluegrass review. He's only been on the site for two weeks but already has some great things to say:
"All in all, it has been nothing but a complete delight to log in each day, and there is so much fun stuff going on that it's easy to get away from the real reason for signing up..the lessons. The video quality is fantastic (think homespun dvd quality), the instruction is top notch, and Bryan has really come into his own as a thoughtful teacher whose critical lens towards flatpicking has become all the way dialed in." - Flatpickin
