Laurel is running a new series of workshops in Bristol, focused on learning how to learn folk music by ear, and exploring aspects of folk style. The taster series is Wednesday nights in May.
The workshops will enable you to learn great new tunes, improve your musicianship, explore how to create harmonies and variations and develop both your ensemble skills and your individual style as a folk musician.
