Playing Banjo By Ear and Jamming
Hello Ross,
I just wanted to say thanks for the workshop you held in Atlanta. It was exactly what I needed and I think everyone else there felt the same way. The way you were able to tailor the workshop to fit everyone's needs was very impressive

 Workshop Testimonials
....I learned more from Ross in four quick hours than I did in all other camps combined. He is a great teacher. Please put me on his list for next year. I also appreciate all the work you put into letting us know when he'll be in town. He's lucky to have your help. Thanks, Tom

Freestyle jams into the night

There are jams, sessions, busking, and concerts. Music is available in abundance all weekend long....on the streets, on the 'Market Square' stage (in the centre of town), in the pubs and in our nightly concert venues.
There are also master class workshops available for musicians of all levels.

Nova Scotia Banjo Camp Faculty Concert
"Nickerson's playing is tasteful,
so carefully arranged, so very very thoughtful and complex".
"No matter what mood or genre
Nickerson has the chops to pull it off with brilliance and taste"
...world class player...an exemplary teacher..Ross'
leadership and clarity of instruction is tremendous..
...very modest despite his infinite
skills. He is friendly and down to earth even though he is a true
virtuosi.
