I love Old Time songs but I was wondering if anyone knew of any artists who are playing Nick Drake / John Fahey style folk on banjos?

...just looking for something a little different and thought this would be the place to ask.

cheers

I have played some Nick Drake songs from Pink Moon record, not John fahey maybe I’ll try… I also have many other songs by Dylan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Lou Reed Stevie Wonder Beatles and so on on my video archive (not all of them are in clawhammer style, I play also Tenor banjo)
