The Mississippi Delta style of blues—or, simply, Delta blues—emphasizes solo performances by singers accompanying themselves on guitar and relying on a host of distinctive techniques, especially the use of a slide or bottleneck. Join Eleanor Ellis in this class that will concentrate on guitar style and learning to play a host of great Delta songs.

It is highly recommended that you also consider taking Eleanor’s Piedmont Blues Guitar and Song class, and of course, Guitar with Guy Davis class as well. You will emerge from this week with a treasure trove of new skills and repertoire.
