Welcome to the June 2006 issue of Banjo Sessions®! This issue features Mike Keyes teaching you how to play Jigs properly. Janet Davis demonstrates Backup Licks. We have an interview with Vinnie Mondello by Lee Thomas and an article on the importances of Mentors and Mentoring by Robert French. I've included examples of how to use the harmonized scale to improvise and learn licks in almost any tune.

Upcoming issues will include how to play Tenor banjo by Joe Carr from his upcoming DVD, First Lessons in Tenor Banjo. I'll also show you the secret tricks to surviving in a Bluegrass jam... and more!
