Homespun

Jimmie Dale Gilmore is an American music icon. His expressive tenor voice, with its distinctive Texas twang and deep folk and country influences, has captivated audiences for decades. Colin Gilmore’s style has clearly been shaped by his father’s music, but he builds on the traditions he learned growing up in the Austin, Texas, music scene. The two playing together, using both fingerpicking and flatpick styles, create a sound that only families singing and playing together can generate.

This extraordinary 2-DVD set teaches exciting new pieces, invaluable musical concepts, and an understanding of the fretboard to help you build your guitar playing to new levels. Woody Mann teaches ten foundational pieces, including four compelling gospel songs he learned directly from Rev. Gary Davis. Other tunes utilize licks and styles of Lonnie Johnson and Eddie Lang, along with Woody’s own jazz-inflected fingerstyle compositions.
