For episode #107 of my #Banjo #FolkSong of the Week workshop series I’ve chosen the #CCR song Lodi. #clawhammerbanjo #frailing #BanjoLearners

I have a new original song out called, “Spelunking in the Attic.” If you’ve ever explored the attic of an old house hoping/expecting to find some wonderful treasure or antique, this song might strike a chord.

For the Banjo Folk Song of the Week workshop #105 I show you how to play another Irish song for St Patrick’s Day — a real good one, but one that may be a little more obscure. It’s called “Johnny Jump Up,” and it was made popular by the Irish singer Christy Moore. I think you’ll enjoy this one!

For my latest Banjo Folk Song of the Week workshop (#104), still with St Patrick’s Day in mind, I’ve chosen the traditional Irish song The Rising of the Moon. https://youtu.be/IprG5Hqs3H0 #clawhammerbanjo #banjo #frailing #irishmusic

With St Patrick’s Day somewhat in view in the distance I decided to do my Banjo Folk Song of the Week (#103) on the Steve Earl song Galway Girl. I used this song a few years ago, but I thought folks might appreciate a new updated workshop for 2023!

I have a new original song that may feel appropriate for people of a certain age who suffer from CRS (Can’t Remember Shit).

Fellow #ClawHammer #frailing #OldTime #banjo players…

Wondering how well-populated #banjodon is right now?

I’m making a concerted effort to improve my beginner playing again with Dan Levenson, Josh Turknett and Evie Ladin materials.

I’d started with Dan’s #ClawhammerBanjoFromScratch book but recently bought the DVD. Wow! Just working with early days #DropThumb exercises and loving it! Dan and Josh seem to be on the same page with drop thumb and even just using it as a rhythmic tool makes things so much more interesting.

I’ve never been to the States but the mountain modal sound flicks a switch deep inside so I’m looking forward to learning a few of those tunes in the future.

I’ve an #Ozark 2109G and a #RecordingKing RK37 right now. I’ve fitted back-facing planetary geared tuners to the Ozark as I really disliked the stock ones. I had railway spikes put on both, but I use the plastic pen tops hack if I need to capo (from double C to double D for now). I use a G7 capo for the other strings.

Anyhow, if you’re an #OldTime picker then give me a heads-up so I can add you to my banjo list if you’d like.

Oh yeah, anyone know where everyone went from #BanjoHangout that isn’t FB, IG or TW? Would love to know if there’s a #Fedi hangout that I just haven’t come across. 🪕😁

Not a new #Frailing #Folksong of the Week #banjo workshop video, since I’m out of town, but this is a Christmas one from a few years ago. #frail #clawhammerbanjo #BanjoLearners #banjoworkshop

This evening I 1: successfully adjusted a banjo truss rod, eliminating string buzz on the instrument. 2: rebuilt a epiphone acoustic electric that was gutted, getting the electrics and harness reinstalled and now its strung up and playing nicely. Ill try plugging in in the AM
