Hornby Island Blues Workshop

One of Canada's premier
Blues instructional camps.

The Hornby Blues Society believes that music creates community, and Blues and Roots music energize the spirit and inspire attitude. In 2012 we continue our unique workshops where we invite a dozen or so of the finest Canadian Blues and Roots musicians around to share their knowledge and inspiration with those 70 students fortunate enough to have successfully registered for the camp. Our workshops cover a variety of instruments and blues playing styles and with our small class sizes, students get a hands-on instruction that is at the heart of all successful learning.

If you want to learn more about playing and performing Blues and Roots music, and want to develop those skills through instruction from professional, working musicians then “Blues Week” is the place for you. If you can see the huge advantage of doing this in a company of like-minded people, in a creative atmosphere on a beautiful island, then Year 13 of the Hornby Island Blues Workshop is where you should be.
