Billy Strings has a band that he's fortunate Jarrod Walker plays in. Jarrod can stand against any player I have ever seen. Not to take anything away from anybody else, but Jarrod is the only player I have seen that can take the attention away from Billy. Anders Beck is a possible exception, but he plays a weird instrument that normal people can't even name. Jarrod Walker is The Truth!
Every picker I have ever known (I am now 75) would have to “hold their mouth right” to be able to concentrate and pick the tune! My dad used to laugh about himself “holding his mouth just right” as he played Soldiers Joy on his mandolin!
It's good to see a picker like Billy choose to play an Eastman. For us amateur mandolinists, it can get a bit depressing seeing all our heroes playing $150,000 instruments!
drink less coffee. lordy, so like I put my lp 33 on 45. Really detracts from song. Annoying. like dude, can play 32'd notes and beyond, but don't feel I have to all the time. music is between the notes.
