About this episode
Episode Notes S upport the Mandolins and Beer Podcast at my Patreon page! My guest this week is Jason Anick. Berklee College of Music Professor Jason Anick, has earned a reputation among string players as an imaginative improviser, versatile composer, and insightful educator. Growing up playing fiddle tunes with his family and classical music with local orchestras, he developed a passion for improvisation, which led him to study jazz and classical music at Hartt Conservatory. In 2008, Anick started what would be a 10 year stint touring and recording with Grammy award-winning guitar virtuoso John Jorgenson while still a senior at Hartt Conservatory. You can purchase his new book and keep up with Jason at his website here! As always, a HUGE THANK YOU to my sponsors!
