This is no Fair


Simply no fair. The amount of talent this takes at such a young age is crazy. My hat is off to you Sleepy Man Banjos!!
BTW, What is the name of the first song they played? Love that one.

With the number of child prodigies at this point, I think I’m now more impressed when an adult plays that well :joy:

The first song they played is Rockwood Deer Chase.

These young pickers even made and appearance on David Letterman years ago. As much as they music, the poise to stand up there on that stage at their age is amazing.

Poor kid, playing banjo so well at such a tender age.
Wait until he’s a teenager and he proudly tells the girls, “I’m a banjo player!”

However, some New Jersey girls are impressed by the strangest things!

those are some great videos. Several years ago just after getting a banjo those were a great inspiration to me!

I think Banjo beats out Funk, but it sure is an awesome mix :sunglasses:
