Ariel Posen is coming to Calgary for one night only. Known for his slide playing, his phrasing and his tone, Ariel is one of the most distinctive guitarists in the country, and we’re thrilled to have him at Festival Hall in Inglewood for a Fret Success Live clinic with Calgary Guitar Collective.
Expect a night of talking and playing. Ariel will walk through how he approaches the guitar and play throughout to show what he means, with Adam Dowling and Justin Kudding from the CGC showcase nights joining him along the way. Dan and Matty will chat with Ariel about his story and what he’s working on, and there’ll be some time for questions.
All levels welcome. Whether you’ve been playing for a year or thirty, you’ll come away with something. Bring a friend.
