Intermediate Old Time Guitar and Singing with Ben Smith

This guitar/singing class is for folks who can already play the basic chords of G, C, D, F and E at a moderate tempo and who are looking to improve their skills for playing guitar with old time music to accompany a fiddler or an old time country song. Half of the course will focus on building interesting fiddle backup with bass runs and chord substitutions. The other half will look at Carter-style guitar to sing songs and play melody at the same time.
