Ukulele School

May 14th the Heritage Alliance is partnering with The Birthplace of Country Music Museum out of Bristol, VA to introduce the ukulele to homeschoolers in the Tri-Cities area. Hosted in the historic Oak Hill School located behind Duncan House this event offers the chance for homeschoolers to learn the basics of the ukulele, some beginner strums, and a brief history of the instrument.

This event is open to all ages, and no musical background or knowledge is needed!

Erin Dalton, a local Appalachian vocalist, songwriter, educator, pianist, composer, and arranger, will be the instructor. For the past decade, Erin has been traveling and teaching everything from elementary school music to hip hop songwriter/performance courses for nonprofits and organizations, hopping from North Carolina to Pennsylvania to northern India. She has spent five years as the director of music camps for The Birthplace of Country Music, and currently resides in Johnson City, TN, where she is a music educator, arranger, and frontwoman of Charlie Maples.
