Guitarist, singer, and songwriter Stash Wyslouch teaches the popular Bluegrass Guitar Fingerboard Mastery, course on Peghead Nation, in which he shows you his step-by-step approach to decoding the mysteries of the guitar neck through the lens of bluegrass, old-time, and country music.
In this video, Stash plays the classic song “Gotta Travel On” in the Peghead Nation studio. The song is credited to The Weavers, Paul Clayton, Larry Ehrlich, and Dave Lazer as songwriters. Bill Monroe recorded a classic version of this song in 1959, and it was first recorded by Pete Seeger in 1958. Stash gives it his own great twist in this version.
Bluegrass has been central to Stash’s life for the past 15 years touring and recording with groups such as the Deadly Gentlemen, Bruce Molsky’s Mountain Drifters, the Jacob Jolliff Band, and Tony Trischka’s Early Roman Kings. He has recorded four albums, the latest of which, Plays and Sings Bluegrass Vol. II, was released in 2021. Conceived as a gift back to the music that has framed his career, Plays and Sings Bluegrass Vol. II is a collection of zanily deconstructed bluegrass classics.
