Beyond Beginner Banjo Songbook
This is the follow up to my “Beginner Banjo Songbook” book. This one is called:
Beyond Beginner: LEVEL UP!
To purchase, visit my ETSY STORE
It contains mostly bluegrass favorites with a few popular tunes added.
This book introduces a greater variety of new banjo techniques. Things like single-string, inside rolls, melodic-style, and playing in different keys/tunings.

If you’ve been playing a year or so and want to keep progressing, this new set of tunes is perfect for you.
Most of the songs are in standard tuning (g D G B D). However, “Hard Times” uses (g D G C D) and “Lost Indian” requires tuning the fifth string to be tuned to A.
PREREQUISITES:
This songbook doesn’t teach you how to read TAB or how to fret the instrument.
It’s assumed you know the very basics.
You’ll need to know your three major and minor chord shapes and standard roll patterns.
What’s Included?
You get the Digital E-book done in PDF format with the 12 TABS.
The TABS have left and right-hand fingerings as needed.
Included are six pages of performance notes. I’ve written a guide for each song that goes over any common trouble spots.
You’ll get the videos at the playlist above to help you hear and watch me play the songs.
Lastly, you get access to me for ANY questions you might have concerning the material. I’m here to help you on the Banjo Journey!
