Hi all,
Euro Blues Week 2017 will run from July 30--August 4 this year, with participants and staff arriving on Sunday, July 30, and classes starting Monday morning and running through Friday afternoon, August 4, when the event ends. The event will be held at a new site this year, Hartpury College Gloucester GL19 3BE United Kingdom, a sports college that Michael Roach has said is a beautiful facility. The teaching staff will include Joe Filisko and Grant Dermody handling the harmonica classes, Adam Franklin teaching slide guitar and blues mandolin, Michael Roach teaching vocal classes and guitar, Eric Noden, Martin Grosswendt and John Miller teaching a variety of intermediate/advanced classes and Abi Budgen teaching a beginning Country Blues guitar class.
The event is a great opportunity to get together and learn from and play with people who have similar musical interests, and the focus that being away from one's normal routine permits often results in a kind of accelerated growth or jump-starting of interest and motivation. For more information, or to sign up, go to: http://www.euroblues.co.uk/bluesweek2017.php . I hope to see you there!
All best,
Johnm
