Duck River - Clawhammer banjo

Duck River! A lovely little tune. It would be cool if I could get the tempo up a bit but I think it sounds pretty alright as is.
Banjo is a standard UTE model tuned to double C. Video and audio recorded on a google pixel phone.
Shoutout to cameraman Freddy for crouching in the creek to get the best shot and cutting his hand while hopping the fence. Your sacrifices are much appreciated.

The name of the creek shall remain nameless to protect the anonymity of the water depicted, picking and depicting, in a wash basin in LA

Hi Phoebe, thanks for your wonderful videos. I am an elementary performing arts teacher in Australia and you have many little fans here too. You are a great role model. Love your amazing playing, you must practice very dilligently!

[@phoebesanders2487]

Oh my! Give my greetings to all my little fans! So glad they enjoy my music, and yea, lots of practice pays off!

[@luciansamosata5977]

@@phoebesanders2487 THANKS! I have 330 kids from Kindergarten to Year 6, who have all watched your Taylor Swift covers and Sugar Hill and Chicken cameo vids. Sorry, but I use you as an example of how brilliant girls have brains, hard work ethic, talent, goofiness and self respect. I've also brought teachers into my music room saying, "you look stressed, here is a mini holiday" and showed them your funny Dolly Parton video, skipping through the mountains. Thank you so much for reply, I'm so glad that your subscriber numbers are jumping ahead each time I watch your videos. They love it. Please know that you have hundreds of warm hugs from Australia! Simon

PS, I'm a beginner bluegass style banjo picker and seeing your work makes me work more diligently.

i dont care I'm a year late to this channel... its proving worth the delay. So much lovely music to catch up on.

[@gilauth6791]

Every day bring something worthwhile TODAY it's Phoebe and her beautiful music way to go Thanks

[@Ghostchaser73]

A river is a river I guess, even if it is the LA river. I love all your videos, Phoebe.

[@geordiedog1749]

Fun fact - after watching your Sugar Hill video I went out and got a banjo and began to learn claw hammer. True dat! (It’s way different than the bass guitar I’m used to! Go figure!)

[@dean8842]

Perhaps the song should instead be known as Duck Flood Control Project? Great playing, by the way!

[@scalefingerz]

I'm sure you planned the irony of palm trees in the background. There are no palm trees in Appalachia. Love this!

[@38below39]

Thumbs up , is right

[@paulyoung5327]

A beautiful Appalachian porch music tune. Sounded good , lol the palm trees told me it wasn't in Appalachia. Found very inspiring so thank you.

[@STP19]
