I am honored to be able to teach this year at the 16th Annual Stephen Foster Old-Time Music Weekend on September 13-15, 2024 on the banks of the historic historic Suwannee River. Held at the Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park, this is an annual landmark event for all Old-Time musicians accomplished or aspiring! This three-day event offers participants in-depth instruction in old time music techniques on the banjo, guitar, and fiddle for all levels.

My scheduled sessions this year include:

Friday 3:30-4:45 – Where Do They Come From – Let’s get old – finding the source and continuing the thread. Mostly listening to and finding older sources.

Saturday 9-10:15 – Bob Carlin and Dan Levenson teach Ed Haley tunes: Boatman and Half Past Four

Sunday 9-10:15 – Tune Development: Beyond the same thing over and over.

Sunday 10:30-11:45 – Writing it down – Tunes and tabs. Learn about your own playing in a novel way.

Registration for the three-day event is $210.00 (add $15 after August 31) which includes all workshops, jam sessions, discussion groups, and concerts. Meals and lodging are the only think not included.
