Blues Camp Song Pool Links
Here are Youtube and SoundCloud links.

Listen, study, practice and learn the song.

Do not email us with song selections. Each list is created based on members, instrumentation and skill level mastery.
The cool thing about the Blues is that it is based on the oral tradition. This camp is designed to encourage and developing the skill of playing by ear. In most cases, there will be no sheet music . . . so encourage them to develop their ear by “really” listening. However, there may be tabs and charts online they can use, but we are stepping up our game this year. If they can’t find a song, no worries, they can learn it with their own personal private lessons instructor.
