We are a group of people who love to sing. Bluegrass harmony is easy to learn, so it makes the singing that much more enjoyable. We have 2 professional musicans/instructors who come with their guitars and voices. We meet from usually in the vicinity of Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY. The cost is $30 per person per class. This may sound like a lot, but we have great instructors, and the enjoyment and camaraderie make it worthwhile. I just found without the professional leadership the group would get stale very quickly. If you can sing in tune, you are a welcome member. We learn new songs each meeting, so the material is always fresh.

Even if you think this is not your style of music, it's a whole different experience in person when you're singing it, not just listening to it. Come on out, we have a blast.

Also, we have met 7 times, and there is usually at least 8 people in attendance. Not everyone who comes signs up thru Meetup. Space is limited to 20. Don't chicken out at the last minute; you won't regret it.

      Hi there. I sing in the shower, I used to play a bit of banjo but gave that up. Anyways, I love bluegrass and I want to start singing out of the shower, too.

      I like to harmonize and enjoy the bluegrass sound, but haven't had a chance to meld the two. I sometimes change the songs I've written to give them a little "twang", and think "If only I had someone around to harmonize with.."

      Hi, I enjoy singing and playing guitar - I can carry a tune well, but would like to learn a lot more about how to create harmonies.

      I love to sing, and do some performing, but have never had a solid grasp of harmonies. Hoping to change that.

      I particulary like bluegrass gospel - don't know why, as I'm Jewish! I think it's because there's just more substance to the theme and meaning to the singers. I love the tight harmonies of bluegrass and would just love to sing some.
