I’ve been moved to a new bass class, which is awesome because now I have Allison as my teacher! Allison was my drum teacher last year, and has been with the camp since the beginning, so we’re old pals.  She moved to Boston a couple of years ago, but comes back every summer to participate.  She’s a great musician and a really fun person to be around.  Her passion for music and sharing knowledge is sincere, not over the top or grating.  I’ve never met anyone who is so enthusiastic and so laid back at the same time, which creates the perfect learning environment.  Playing drums is fun, but playing drums with Allison is brilliant!  Learning bass just got a lot more interesting.
