Southern Rail, A Bluegrass Concert
Saturday, April 26, 7:00 pm

Described by Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine as “on the cutting edge of creativity”, the award-winning bluegrass band Southern Rail returns to CCM with high energy exuberant fun and stunning harmonies, irrepressible good humor and sparkling banjo, guitar and mandolin.

Group Classes – Classes are taught with the folk tradition in mind in a community-based social setting.  Pick up songs shared in the Bluegrass and Roots tradition, learning melodies by ear.

Song-based and aural learning works a whole different part of the brain than reading music off the page.  Learning in this manner opens up a whole new world of musical and social possibilities. Whether you’re a beginner or the best on the block there’s a place – and a class – for you here.
