More About Me
I have a Bachelor's degree in music teaching as well as a Master's degree in musicology, all with the banjo as my main instrument. I work as a freelance banjo player and teacher based in Oslo, Norway.
Currently my main band projects are the bluegrass bands The Fretworkers and Moving Day, newgrass band Oslo Grass Ensemble and my electric band Deku Trio.
If you want any tips either online or want to meet up and play, give me a call on +47 992 60 953 or an email at mikael@mikaeljonassen.no and I'll get back to you.
Playing three-finger style both Scruggs, melodic and single string, I'm well versed in the bluegrass genre but could also help you begin your journey into other genres such as jazz or classical music, with extended bluegrass banjo technique.

Norwegian:
Jeg har en bachelorgrad i musikkfaglærer og mastergrad i musikkvitenskap, med banjo som hovedinstrument. Jobber som frilans banjospiller og banjolærer, og er basert i Oslo.
For tiden er hovedprosjektene mine bluegrassbandene The Fretworkers og Moving Day, newgrassbandet Oslo Grass Ensemble og det elektriske bandet Deku Trio.
Hvis du vil ha tips enten via nettet eller vil møtes for å spille eller ta timer, kan jeg nås på telefon 992 60 953 eller e-post mikael@mikaeljonassen.no.
Jeg spiller mest bluegrass, men kan også hjelpe deg med å bruke banjoen til andre sjangre med hjelp av avanserte trefinger-teknikker som single-string og melodic.
