Rock Guitar Essentials with Rick Graham
We run a wide variety of workshops and masterclasses but it has been a while since we have run a rock based session. In response to the demand of our students we are happy to bring you a special session with master guitarist Rick Graham
Rick is a graduate of the prestigious Guildhall School of Music and Drama at the Barbican in London. He is a skilled classical guitarist but it is in rock based styles where he excels. He released his first EP in 2005 to high critical acclaim before relocating to the south of France to work as a session guitarist and performer, appearing on French television and radio several times. Since then he has released his high anticipated solo album 'Insideout' in 2010 which received rave reviews. He went on to play at the Frankfurt Muscmesse, the London Guitar Show and NAMM in California. In 2011 he was crowned 'Guitarist of the Year' by Guitarist magazine.
In this session Rick will give you the tools and guidance you need to become one with playing rock guitar. Every facet of your approach will be given treatment from guidance on technique, theory and aural skills through to making the best use of your practice time and how to get the tone you need for best effect. The session will be very hands on and participants are encouraged to bring their guitars to get stuck in and start applying the concepts taught in the session. The best thing is that you do not need to be an expert player to join in the session and during discussions for this class Rick strongly emphasised that anyone can take part and that the concepts taught will be applicable to everyone involved.
This event will be held at Music Nation Leeds at Cape Industrial Estate on Saturday October 5th from 14:00 - 17:00. http://musicnationleeds.com/events/rock-guitar-essentials-with-rick-graham
