The Mid Week Guitar Meet
In the spirit of community, Samuel will be hosting a free online guitar study group every Wednesday from now until the New Year!
Samuel’s first ‘Mid Week Flamenco Meet’ takes place next Wednesday (28th October) at 7:00pm (GMT). If you want to get involved, please send Samuel an email now via this website’s contact page.
