Anybody else being tugs back an forth between playing in a punk band, and their banjo playing? If so I would love to hear it.

I play banjo on our garage rock and punk-o-billy songs as well as our more traditional New Orleans inspired stuff. Just play it loud and with attitude. Maybe look at an fully electric banjo like the Deering Crossfire. Cheers, rj

If you want to hear our Anglo-French punk-blues-folk band Skin and Wire, check us out here: soundcloud.com/skinandwire (see if you like our version of Woody Guthrie's "Jolly Banker") Also a vid on: vimeo.com/57007819 Hope you like it!
