Fiddle Preacher Tribe Events are about being...a Tribe.

If you are the melody, your fellow tribesters are the harmony. We challenge each other, support each other, and develop our musical superpowers authentically, passionately, together.

Events include:

Class of Masters - a monthly group class covering a variety of musical subjects 

Tribe Nights - a unique musical experience curated by Bronwen or other passionate Tribe Guardians

Jam Recitals - quarterly gatherings based around holidays where we jam, perform, eat, drink and are ridiculously merry!

Tribe members get one free event per month and can use any event as a makeup for a missed lesson. Otherwise, all events are $20.
