Takin a quick 20m banjo break in my favorite summer spot, the porch.

More please! Not sure exactly what it is about banjo music I love so much, but I'm honestly obsessed with that twangly magic

It’s so expressive! The most expressive instrument I know how to play Here’s a medley 😅

Oh interesting! I found that medley to have a delcious lyrical / plangent air... is that down to the tuning? Where would "Duelling banjos" fit into that framing

Dueling banjos is in the narrow (but rad) open g bluegrass 3 finger picks style I play clawhammer, 2 finger and pinch styles. My 3 finger skills are weak but I do practice it! I can play foggy mountain breakdown tho 🤘

Mario isn’t traditional tho lol, that’s me just finding tunes that fit the tuning, there’s a few video game songs I can play 🙂

To confess my ignorance... I had not realised that there was any Mario in there! To me it was all charm and wistfulness
