Sierra Hull - Secrets, Songs, & Tunes 2 DVD Setfrom Janet Davis Music - The Banjo Store
Sierra Hull Started her first year of college in 2009, and is already one of the most celebrated mandolinists in and around bluegrass music. While still in high school she released her debut CD, Secrets, on Rounder Records. On this 2 DVD set Sierra teaches the mandolin solos she plays on Secrets, plus a number of instrumentals she recorded as a pre teen.
To get things started, AcuTab's John Lawless leads Sierra through a discussion about how she came to be a stunning virtuoso at such a young age, including her early influences and inspirations. The bulk of the video, however, is all music with 10 complete songs and tunes demonstrated, taken from her critically-acclaimed debut album Secrets, from Rounder Records. Sierra teaches these songs carefully and in great detail. She and John discuss each solo before it is demonstrated by an all-star band, and then she breaks it down, piece-by-piece. Even though a few of the solos are fairly difficult, the way she teaches puts them within reach of most pickers. She goes slowly, breaking down each break into easily-digestible bits, stringing them all together in a format accessible to beginning and intermediate students. Songs taught include: Smashville That's All I Can Say Hullarious From Now On Secrets Sierra's Waltz Ice On The Road Everybody's Somebody's Fool Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder DVD-A-SHULL - List Price: $50.00 Special: $41.50 |
