Guest Post on Banjo After Dark

Screenshot of the accompanying video

I was quite honored when, last summer, Jonas Friddle of Banjo After Dark, asked me to make a guest video.

The topic  I choose was one we regularly work on in Guitar Crew; knowing which songs are appropriate to bring to the jam.

In this video I share my thoughts on, why it’s fun to bring a song to lead at an open jam, the types of songs to lead, and a few pointers to smooth the bumpy road that that beginning song leaders alway encounter.

Do you have any advice to share, or an interesting story from a time when you lead a song, or when you heard someone else lead a song? We’d love to hear it!

p.s. I highly recommend joining Jonas’ Banjo After Dark Patreon page. It’s free to join (although tossing a few bucks his way is always helpful) and I think you’ll find some fantastic resources.
