GIG TICKET RESERVATIONS: If you would like to reserve tickets for the gig and/or workshop, please email tradsoc@st-andrews.ac.uk. The gig is £8 or just £6 for students (if you can present an old T-shirt that smells of burnt toast as proof on entry). The workshop is very reasonably priced at £5! Workshops are open to players from multiple genres of acoustic music.
WORKSHOP PART 1: ADAM SUTHERLAND’S TUNESMITHERY CIRCLE
St. Andrews University Student Union, 1.30pm-2.30pm.
Designed for the tune players, Adam will explore harmonic ideas to help guide you to finding your own melodic style and rhythmic approach. Highly informative, inspiring, totally zen and extremely uplifting for the soul!
WORKSHOP PART 1 (Alternative): HAMISH NAPIER’S HARMONY AND ACCOMPANIMENT SUMMIT
St. Andrews University Student Union, 1.30pm-2.30pm.
Running simultaneously with Adam’s workshop, Hamish’s class is designed for the chordal accompaniment players and rhythm players. This will not be dull. Within the space of 1 hour Hamish will teach you about chords, modes and groove through a method that is, quite frankly, astoundingly clear. EUREKA!
WORKSHOP PART 2: ADAM & HAMISH’S BAND GATHERING
St. Andrews University Student Union, 3pm-4pm
Everyone that attended the 1.30pm workshops will come together in one giant class to make music that will defy the boundaries of folk, Western classical, and the outer reaches of jazz as we know it. Expect tears of joy.
GIG: NAE PLANS LIVE
Boys Brigade Hall, doors 7pm, starts 7.30pm.
Hamish and Adam take to the stage for a completely unplanned, unarranged and terrifyingly unhinged setlist – a rollercoaster of a ride!
