It’s time to finish you compositions!
The Mike Auldridge Instrumental Composition Contest honors the life and musicianship of one of America’s greatest bluegrass players.
Entries must be entered between August 18, 2024 and October 14, 2024.
On the 3rd Sunday of each month from 5-7 pm, the DC Bluegrass Union will host our Old School Open Mic (OSOM) at Lucketts Community Center, 42361 Lucketts Road, Leesburg, VA. On September 15, Serene Green members, Michael Johnson & Quentin “Q” Fisher will be available for accompaniment. **SIGN UP UPON ARRIVAL**
One important aspect of DCBU’s mission is to promote music education. We offer an instructor directory so students can locate teachers in their local area for in-person instruction. Additionally, since so many great musicians teach online classes, we’re now posting information for instructors wherever they are located. To sign-up as an instructor fill out the form by selecting the link below. Your submission will be reviewed and added to our directory within a few days.
7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Barber Shop, Hyattsville MD
The Archie Edwards Blues Heritage Foundation (“Archie’s Barbershop”)
4502 Hamilton St, Hyattsville, MD, just half a block off of Baltimore Ave. (Rt. 1)
The jams are on the first and third Monday of each month. A small donation is requested (about $4, less if you’re hurting, more if you’ve got it to spare). This is not a bar so it’s BYOB.
If you know anyone who might like to come, please pass this message along to them. Thanx!
