Bluegrass camp is for students who want to play in a string band! All levels are welcome. Join instructors Matt Brown, Harris Gardner, and Joe Watts for a week of honing skills on your instrument and jamming with the whole band. Campers should bring their singing voice, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, guitar, or bass. One of the most fun aspects of the week is when we carve out time for the kids to try the other bluegrass instruments. Another highlight is co-writing a new bluegrass song to share at the Friday showcase!
On Friday afternoon, campers will share what they’ve learned with their caregivers at our camper showcase.
If you need to rent an instrument for your camper, we recommend Doo Wop Shop for mandolins, banjos, and guitars and these stores for fiddles:
