For me, you represent the best accompanied trad banjo playing on the planet. Rock solid steady beat and drone with some very imaginative delicate chord use.
My sister has played the guitar for years,i have only just picked up the BANJO, My very first instrument, it will be a few years before we get to do something like this.
Very very good indeed, usually people playing tunes in their hours etc and covers etc are just about how good they can play or sing etc but this I could happily just listen to for the vibe of the music itself

@@karendolanbanjo I have a tune called The Magnolia Jig. I'm trying to export it. If you like it, give it a try and post it on youtube! I'd be amazed to have a recording from a fine player such as yourself giving it a go in Ireland. th-cam.com/video/APXYFPDk_mU/w-d-xo.html
awesome pairing, really pleased to have discovered this. those crunchy chords around 1:50 are killer! have you made any proper recordings / releases together?
