Mon, 07/11/2016 - 2:29pm
We’ve just added 25 new mandolin lessons! Mike Marshall took a bunch of classic Bluegrass tunes for mandolin and recorded lessons on them in two common keys to accommodate both male and female singing ranges. Mike teaches the rhythm and basic chords for the tune, and also some different ways to think about approaching it from a supportive role. From there you’ll learn the melody and how to embellish it using chopping, tremolo and various other techniques.
