Yep ! Another tune rather swing-bluegrass. I play the banjo and the BIAB friends are playing the other intruments.

Another good one.

Impressive skill on the banjo.

Super country swing
Great banjo pickin'
Great RTs
Super mix


I arrived early to a restaurant.
The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?"
I said no.
"Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

Sweet and swinging (and a little bit gypsy). Another really fun one in the forum tonight!

That came out of the speakers LOUD.
You're a nimble one on the torturetonetool.
Nice mix, nice sounds but it does sound a bit "jammy" as there's not much of a melodic thread carrying across the entirety.
I do like it though. My banjo skills are REALLY limited and I've not touched the thing for about nine years.
I'm impressed by your playing.


Cheers

Toe-tappin' and finger-clicking fun. Well balanced and the other instruments don't get in the way. The Steel is a nice touch.

Well done with this.
Good picking and the band fits in nice.
As Ray says, there is a lack of melody and it did make me turn down the volume slightly.
Still well done though.
