Banjo Vids


Been learning a little banjo. These are some exceptional videos I have been combing through. Including Dueling Banjos as posted earlier.









Steve Martin seems to busk at the crossroads where comedy and music intersect.

The Fluffy Bunnies like to put banjo on Fearless, and Wish You Here by Pink Floyd. These songs are nice to approach with a banjo. Good learning. The lyrics to these tunes are off the hook.






Ensemble La Volta (Switzerland)

Dill pickle Rag/Blackberry Rag/Blackberry blossom Instruments: Mandolin, Banjo, Guitar, Mexican Guitarron, Spoons

Pat Cloud

This book by Peter Wernick has been helpful as well.

I just heard the other day on NPR of a bunch of blues guys getting together jamming on banjos. Keb Mo, was the only name I can remember now but if you google it I'm sure they will all fall into place

With respect and kindness.
