MSJ 3 continues the series at a more affordable price for many bluegrass budgets. Since so many folks now use the Strum Machine app, there hasn’t been such a need for as many practice tracks in the workshop, so that instead of each selection having a demo/practice track, there are about half as many of those as in previous courses which helps us offer the course at a lower price.

Each of the selections here are wonderful songs and tunes that are well known by folks in the tradition. The only official Monroe tune is the masterful Golden West, one of his later compositions which has three parts and is very challenging. That’s the only note-for-note tune in the course. The rest of the material focuses on learning the melody in a solid way, then exploring our favorite devices like the Slidey Lick, Staggered Arpeggios, and the Bounce Lick to add some classic Monroe style flavor and texture as we switch and swap and flavor to taste.

If you are not familiar with the main devices, the full teaching videos can be found on the Noya Mountain Music YouTube channel but are also included in the course for convenience. For those looking to explore one of the 12 week courses without breaking the bank, MSJ 3 is highly recommended!
