Welcome to the third week of the ArtistWorks Summer Series! Every week this summer, we’ll be dropping new lessons, performances, study materials, and more from some of your favorite ArtistWorks teachers.

This week, we’re excited to debut over 4 hours of brand new online mandolin lessons from world-renowned mandolinist, Grammy-nominated musician, and ArtistWorks bluegrass mandolin instructor, Mike Marshall.

Mike’s brand new lessons teach five timeless bluegrass tunes, all of which are great for beginner, intermediate, and advanced players alike. Mike teaches how to play Bill Monroe classics like “Old Dangerfield” and “Watson’s Blues,” as well as tunes by mandolin icons David Grisman and Sam Bush. In addition to teaching these new tunes, Mike also details critical techniques to take your improvisation skills to the next level.

With these new lessons, Mike’s course now features a total of over 100 hours of video content!
