Alison Brown Presents Banjo Basecamp

“As banjo classes go, Banjo Base Camp is a real class act. It will make you a smarter player.” – 2025 Banjo Camper CLICK HERE TO REGISTER Hosted and curated by GRAMMY-winning banjoist Alison Brown and set at the idyllic Porches Inn in the Northern Berkshire hills, this multi-day banjo camp is the first of its kind. Alison has assembled an all-female faculty that includes the 6-time IBMA award-winning banjoist Kristin Scott Benson and Steve Martin Banjo Prize winner BB Bowness. Collectively, the faculty brings years of experience as both performers and educators; each instructor is committed to helping you up your banjo game in a nurturing and exclusive environment. All levels welcome! Over the course of 3 days, a maximum of 50 students will have the opportunity to improve their playing, with an instructional focus on technique, expanding repertoire and gaining comfort playing in jam sessions. Elective sessions will allow campers to learn about recording techniques for the 5-string banjo, overcoming stage fright and more. In jam sessions and social time, students will also have a chance to make new friends and enjoy the fellowship of the banjo community. Join us for this unforgettable banjo camp in the Berkshires at the peak of the fall foliage season!
