I predominantly play Bluegrass but I like other styles of music too. I play acoustic guitar and upright bass. Any other folks on the forum play bluegrass?

Plus many more great artists here. Make sure you have plenty of food and water before "attacking" these. Clicking on Column header will sort nicely for you. Users ShowCase songs.

There are a selection of standards there which are a good place to start learning BiaB. Then look for a folder called BGFAKE. This is the Bluegrass Fake Book, with a nice selection of Bluegrass standards and a few more obscure songs. If you do not have the BGFAKE folder, call the PG Music main number and ask how to get it.

Guitarhacker Veteran Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 9,405 Middlesex, NC	Welcome Kali.... I actually believe that one of BB/RB's strong points is bluegrass music. It has the capability to create some very realistic sounding BG. New Grass is one song of several BG style tunes that I worked up in BB/RB. As you create music, be sure to post it in the User Showcase so others can enjoy and comment. Last edited by Guitarhacker; 07/17/14 06:05 AM. You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
