Bring the soul of the Blues to your banjo playing, Blues for Banjo 1 is a great place to start. This method takes you step-by-step through essential chords, rhythms, and techniques - all built around the 12-bar blues form.
Begin With the Basics - No Experience NeededEven if you're new to banjo, you'll get straightforward guidance and simple, effective exercises. Learn using easy-to-follow chord symbols and sheet music with tab. The tuning is D-G-B-D (and doesn't use the drone string) for easy-playing on either 4-string or 5-string banjos.
Essential Chords and Classic Blues ProgressionsBuild a foundation with beginner-friendly chord shapes. You'll focus on the rhythm and feel of 12-bar progressions - the backbone of blues, rock, and swing.
Shuffle Rhythms, 6/8 Time and 7th ChordsLearn shuffle rhythms and real blues phrasing. Begin with easy, straight quarter and eigth-note rhythms and then move on to Shuffles and 6/8 time. As you build your rhythm skills, you'll move from familiar major chord shapes to minor chords, dominant 7ths and even minor 7th chords for an authentic sound. With authentic chords and core rhythms, you'll be playing the Blues with style and confidence.
