Dear Everyone,
Booking for this is now open:

Lewes Saturday Folk Club Workshop No 143
David Newey GUITAR WORKSHOP
Places £10
Saturday 12th. March 2011
2.00 p.m. - 4.30 p.m.
The Crown Inn, 191 High St, Lewes BN7 2NA
                
        David is a brilliant young guitarist, singer & songwriter who recently graduated from the Newcastle University traditional music degree course. He's currently touring with the distinguished fiddler Tom McConville & also US fiddler & singer Christi Andropolis. He's recorded with Rubus & also Sandra Kerr.

        David's unique style mixes folk, rock and roll, blues, slide and a tiny bit of jazz. Using a mix of flatpick and fingerstyle, he's keen to draw as much from the instrument as possible, and not limit it to one genre. In his hands, the guitar is tastefully and artfully pushed as far as it will go when accompanying himself or others.            
IN THE EVENING TOM McCONVILLE & DAVID NEWEY
PERFORM AT THE ELEPHANT & CASTLE
Admission £8.
Advance tickets from address at end of this form.

DAVID NEWEY GUITAR WORKSHOP
Saturday 12th. March 2011
2.00 p.m. - 4.30 p.m.

The workshop will cover the following:

        Melody Playing – tunes and songs, both fingerstyle and flatpick.
        Accompaniment Techniques – How to use chords effectively with traditional and original material and tunes.
        Tunings – Alternative tunings – we'll look at some interesting G tunings, D tunings, and anything else you fancy.
        Scales, Warm Ups and Improvisation – We'll take a look at these three, use some guitar based theory, and give you some ideas to get your playing continuously moving.
        I'll also be very open to taking questions on the day, looking at specifics and generally exploring the instrument.

N.B. Booking is recommended as numbers are limited. Music will be sent in advance & maps & accommodation lists on request.

We still have some places for this and plenty of tickets for Tom McConville and David Newey at the Lewes Saturday Folk Club in the evening. There is one place left for Tom's all-day fiddle workshop at the Elephant & Castle.
