8 Ball Aitken brings his wealth of experience to an immersive slide and cigar box guitar workshop, offering tunings, techniques, and trade secrets for players of all levels. From beginners to advanced musicians, attendees will gain valuable insights into tone, phrasing, and slide control, with hands-on guidance from one of Australia’s most electrifying blues artists.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own guitar and slide, as the session culminates in a collaborative jam, putting newly learned skills into action. Whether refining technique or starting from scratch, this workshop promises an engaging and inspiring musical experience with 8 Ball Aitken.
