Enter our free giveaway and you may just be one of three lucky winners! The prize? A personalized "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" bundle from John McEuen himself.

About the book, John tells us, "The story, of a band’s young banjo picker who 'wanted to play with Earl Scruggs and Doc Watson someday', is told and shown here. How that five-year-old band (NGDB) took a risk on a ‘bluegrass’ recording, coming up to the high level of playing and singing needed, while still ‘young’."
This is the world's largest, most active banjo community. Established in 2000, the Banjo Hangout features forums, classifieds, and a massive library of free banjo tabs, MP3s and videos.
