Online Lessons: If you're not near Winchester, you can get some face-to-face instruction via webcam. Skype, iChat, and AIM all work. This option is especially great if you don't have a banjo teacher in your area.

After you order, Casey will contact you to schedule your lesson(s). Be sure to include in the comments field what times are generally best for you (weekdays/weekends, morning/afternoon/evening). Questions? Email Casey: gibsontb11 (at) gmail (dot) com.

Live Lessons: Casey teaches banjo in Winchester, Virginia. If you're passing through town and want to stop by for a lesson, just shoot her an email. If you're local and want to sign up for regular lessons, you can do that, too. She teaches by ear, no tab or music reading required.

Custom Lessons: If you've been working with The Murphy Method DVDs, you'll already be familiar with Casey's teaching style. Sometimes there's a song that you really want to learn, but it's not on any DVD. Casey can do a lesson for almost any song you're interested in. Most traditional bluegrass songs will cost $30 (more if it's particularly long or complicated or not bluegrass). To order: If the song appears on the list below, you can order right here using the "Add to Cart" button. If you don't see your song on the list, email Casey and you can arrange for her to record your lesson. (Also available: Guitar practice tracks [click here].)
