Old time banjo making its way back into the pop consciousness through Beyonce. Rhiannon Giddens is a great musician and historian. Nice work!

I woke up yesterday morning to new music from Beyoncé, featuring none other than my banjo and viola playing throughout. On the heels of her SUPER BOWL commercial album announcement, her single “Texas Hold ‘Em” is the first off her new country record, .

The beginning is a solo riff on my minstrel banjo - and my only hope is that it might lead a few more intrepid folks into the exciting history of the banjo. I used to say many times as soon as Beyonce puts the banjo on a track my job is done. Well, I didn't expect the banjo to be mine, and I know darn well my job isn't done, but today is a pretty good day.

Listen now, on repeat. 🤠🪕🐝

Nice run of vintage speakers to start the new year. Scored a pair of 1965 Fisher XP10s. Guy had little idea of what he was getting rid of. Will be a great match for the ‘65 Fisher 500c stereo amp. Going to strip and refinish the cabs. Each weigh in at 80lbs and have a 15” woofer along with the tweeter. Along with the 60s KLH 23s I got from Grady should have some nice tones here soon. They really don’t make ‘em like they used to. I know there are some hi-fi people that follow the show. Any experience with these?
