Steve Kaul & the Brass Kings will be touching on many different "Tricks of the Trade." Steve Kaul will be giving guitar demonstrations using open tuning for Hawaiian and other types of folk music, as well as having an open informal discussion for construction and uses of the resophonic guitar.

Brad Ptacek, "Master of the Washtub Bass," will give you the laundromatic history, nuts & bolts on how to build a washtub bass.

Then, plan to mix it up with "Washboardist," Mikkel Beckmen. He'll show you how to alter a song's identity with textures and rhythms.
