Playing the banjo for ever it seems yet is seems like I just began! I began playing guitar in the 8th grade and got a banjo soon after that...I played mostly guitar until the early ྖs then focused all my energy on BANJO! I play in the frailing & knockdown style...not so much Clawhammer...more basic back beat happening (I think). I stay away from tradition because I don't know any and figure things out by listening non-stop to the "masters" of Oldtimey music. I don't work at playing the banjo; it just is something that happens simply for me. Find full mp3's at my web-site www.banjofrailer.com .....I like to keep the music FREE....hope you enjoy my style and banjo playing....it's my passion.
