Clawhammer Cookbook - Tools, Techniques & Recipes for Playing Clawhammer Banjo

Book with online audio. There are two ways to approach writing a cookbook. One way is to give you a bunch of recipes and tell you, "Here's how to make this dish, or here's how to play this tune." Another is to teach you how to cook. This book takes the second path. The goal isn't to tell you how to play tunes or how to play like anyone else. It's to teach you ways to approach, arrange, and personalize any tune - to develop your own unique style. To that end, we'll take in a healthy serving of old-time music and expand the clawhammer palate to taste a few other musical styles. Audio contains demos of all the songs and examples. Tablature only. 128 pp.
