Set to be released in March of 2010, the new Sierra Hull DVD, Secrets Songs & Tunes, is now available only through AcuTab Publications and directly from Sierra herself.

The project is a 2 disc instructional DVD set featuring instruction from one of bluegrass music’s brightest young stars. Sierra teaches the mandolin solos from her CD Secrets, as well as a few instrumental tunes she had previously recorded.

From the back cover of the DVD:

Sierra teaches these songs carefully and in great detail. She and John discuss each solo before it is demonstrated by an all-star band, and then she breaks it down, piece-by-piece. Even though a few of the solos are fairly difficult, the way she teaches puts them within the reach of most pickers.

Even at this relatively young age (we filmed 2 years ago and Sierra was only 16 at the time), Sierra proved to be a professional in the studio. Shooting this project was easy, due in large part to Sierra’s preparedness coming into the studio. She knew the material and went through it easily. Editing was made easy because, well…she just doesn’t make mistakes!

Here’s the trailer we put together for the finished product. Remember, the two disc set includes 4 hours of instruction!
