It’s just a little over three weeks until Bill Evans and Megan Lynch are at the Wil-Mar Neighborhood Center in Madison for an instructive, fun-filled day of banjo, fiddle, and jam workshops and a concert. There is still room in each workshop for more participants, and advance concert tickets are available online right here,  at Spruce Tree Music in Madison, and by contacting Julie Cherney at cherney@uwalumni.com or 608-260-2675.  Contact Julie also about registering for the workshops, or download the registration form here. 

SWBMAI is excited to present these top-notch musicians/teachers/performers in a day-long event. (Learn more about Bill and Megan at www.nativeandfine.com or google bill evans and megan lynch.) If you’ve never attended a workshop with professional bluegrass musicians, this is the perfect chance. And if you’ve never participated in a jam with professional musicians – especially a fiddle champion and a hot banjo picker – you’re in for a real treat!

This is the first time in several years that SWBMAI has offered such a wonderful educational opportunity for area musicians and, with the concert, a perfect family event for the Madison community (children under 12 may attend the concert free of charge). There’s something for everyone.
