This time we will take a look at Bonnie Raitt’s arrangement of John Prine’s “Angel From Montgomery”, including her signature part, accompaniment patterns, and fills.
This class will be recorded and made available to stream or download. $35, includes video and all tabs.

Connecting Through Rhythm & Breath
Join master music coaches Liz Johnson and Dave Isaacs for another special MUSICAL healing arts workshop. Connecting Through Rhythm and Breath is a shared experience in how listening, breathing, and making sounds together calms the body, opens your ears and voice, and helps you begin to find your own natural rhythm. It’s also an opportunity for busy adults to unplug and freely play, in both senses of the word. As one past participant put it, “you walk in as an adult, and leave as a child”.
No musical training is required! You can use your voice, play an instrument, hit a drum, or clap your hands. If you do play an acoustic instrument – guitar, bowed strings, winds, brass, or percussion – bring it, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. There’s a way for everyone to join in and we will end the session with a guided jam and group sing.
Complete beginners and experienced musicians alike are welcome! Open to adults and teens 12 and up.
