One of my favorite things to do with music is to make stuff up. In the context of Country Music, improvisation has always played a big role. Through the strength of its subtleties, it enhances not only the melodies, but the story of the song itself. In this class, we’ll be diving into the questions of when to improvise, as well as how. Open to all instruments and skill levels.
Please get in touch with any questions you may have!
Instructor Bio
Thomas Bryan Eaton is the most fun, patient, organized yet relaxed teacher you will ever come across. He currently lives in the Nashville area where he is also in demand as a studio musician and producer. He writes and performs his own songs while touring regularly with Miss Tess & the Talkbacks and Western Centuries. You may have heard the old saying that someone is “eat up with music”? Well, that is Thomas. He can stay up all night playing both six string and steel guitar as well as singing whatever the jam or performance calls for. He knows all the old classic country songs and sings them with feeling that belies his young years. A young student wrote last year, “This man is a phenomenal musician, teacher and human. He made the hardest instrument there seem not so daunting.” Believe it.
