I play (mostly) 19th and early 20th-century banjo music. I'd play 4-string early jazz banjo if I could find any musicians to play with. I reserve the right to post non-banjo content, although I aim to keep this account more or less focused on music.
I am not particularly interested in banjo as a good-old-timey-appalachian-country-folk-bluegrass totem.

...and here's the first strain of "Banjoland," once through. I've got the whole piece about 90% "under my fingers" as the saying goes, with the remaining challenges being to put all the parts together without stumbling, and play it maybe a little bit faster. #mastomusic #classicstylebanjo #classicbanjo #classicfingerstylebanjo #banjo #practicemakesbetter
I forgot to post another 'on this day' yesterday, this one's a wee original that I wrote and multi-tracked for #novembeat last year:

This week's #earlybanjototw is "Pea Nut Girl" by W.H. Gassner, from James Buckley's 1868 banjo guide. I gave it more of an #earlyjazz treatment here with #plectrumbanjo and #parlorguitar:

I stayed up way too late putting this together, so you all had better watch it

Forgot to share an #onthisday #banjo clip yesterday: "Cataract Jig", a #classicstylebanjo duet by Herbert J Ellis, circa 1900, recorded by me last year:
