Dear Students, Parents, and Friends,
I am excited to offer the opportunity to learn some new tunes and tricks from a professional fiddler! Lisa Deakins has graciously agreed to offer a fiddle workshop at my home studio. Lisa has worked in Nashville as a professional fiddle player and background vocalist for country music artists Pam Tillis and Grand Ole Opry legend Whisperin’ Bill Anderson, and has also performed with Charlie Daniels, Bobby Osborne, and many other great artists. View Lisa's biography: www.lisadeakins.com.
I hope that you will seize this wonderful opportunity to learn something new to energize your playing! Feel free to share this information with other violinists and fiddlers. Have them email their questions to me at lessons@vinciguerraviolin.com. Details about the workshop are below.
