This is the third in our intro to ukulele class series and we will be wroking on playing blues on the ukulele!
We'll cover the basic 12 and 8 bar blues structure and various concepts we can do to add a bluesy feel to our playing, such as the blues shuffle and boogie woogie shuffle, intros and outros, cool licks and fills, and more.
If you've come to the first or second class, or have learned a few basic chords already, you're absolutely ready.
Follow Jack through his misadventures with his trusty cow Buttercup, a set of magic beans, a giant, and a beanstalk!
Ages 4 and up.
