Harvest Season And Connecting With More Chick Players On FB

      Thankful that Fall is at the doorstep and I'm playing 5 and 6 string banjo as of late. In fact,Eric was kind enough to be willing to have my Banjitar articles be placed in the Banjo Hangout e newsletter,which I'm very excited about!! I was rather surprised that most banjo newsletters are confined to strictly 5 or 4 string,and no wiggle room for banjitars. I think Eric has done a ground breaking thing here. 

       Things are happening more on Facebook as far as connecting with other female banjoists go. I've discovered Mean Mary,Kendl Winter,Sheila Kay Adams,Athens Abell,Alison Brown and Erin Inglish among others. Banjitar wise I have discovered "Black Jack" Barnet. There's even a "Banjo Babes" calendar,which I'll probably wind up ordering even tho I still wrestle with the "show off your bod" bit being so ingrained in the promotion of female artists. I will say I'm glad to see they're all genuine banjoiists,and not models trying to look like they're playing-and there's a lot of humor in most of the shots. 

 I'm also playing mandolin and classical guitar more.along with the banjitar & banjo. Bluegrass playing on banjo is soo similar to playing classical guitar when it comes to the right hand. I'm still set on stretching into playing "clawgrass" style. 

I have joined the website Patreon,which for artists to not only promote themselves,but also gain pledges from patrons who appreciate you. Google their website and check it out! It's free.
