Joe...Love your playing and your lessons. I'm just getting started. I've heard you and several others mention "Real World" jam tracks. Do you have a link? I Googled to find them, but with no success. I would like to have accompaniment to practice against. To my surprise, finding a local Dobro teacher is like pulling teeth. I live in Greenville, SC near Asheville, NC, about an hour southeast. That area is a folk music capitol. You would think finding an instructor would be a piece of cake.
Yep, Asheville is a great scene! Billy Cardine is not far from you, but I don't know if he does private lessons. My "Real World Tracks" are on my website. I've recently changed to a subscription format, it's $12/month to get everything I have on the site. There's a free trial if you want to check it out first. I also teach private lessons by video through my site. some people take lessons every week, and some people learn with the courses on the site and check in once a month or so. You can check it out at www.dobrojoe.com/ If you have any questions, you can email me at joe@dobrojoe.com thanks! Joe
