Singing & Yodeling - John Lilly
Find your inner Hank (or Kitty)! We will sing old country songs in the old country way - with feeling and with plenty of twang and attitude. We'll spend some time yodeling. If there is interest, we will also explore some two-part harmony singing, as well. Come prepared to sing from the soles of your shoes, with your eyes closed and your head thrown back. Guitars are welcome but not necessary. If you do bring a guitar, don't forget your capo - we're going up the neck!
The location will be St. Luke's Roman Catholic Church across from Hancock Park.
The cost for the class is $50
The cost for the class for a student or a current SEBA member is $45
The cost for the class with a new SEBA E-membership is $60
You can also register by downloading the mail-in form or by contacting Joe Matteson.
