Welcome to my online banjo lessons! In today's session we'll go over two things:
1.)Technical lesson: How to quickly warm up the link between your brain and your hands. For those times when you feel like you're playing sloppy! We'll go over this technique on the G major scale, and also 'Cripple Creek' in G tuning.
2.)Tune lesson: We'll learn 'Down in the Willow Garden' in Double C tuning and in 3/4 Waltz time. Play along with the fiddle.

I like this way of learning the chords first rather than trying to add them to a melody afterwards, so thank you!

@BennyBleu Месяц назад

Cool, thanks a lot for watching and I'm glad you got something from it 8^)

Great lesson Benny, very helpful! I've just stumbled across your channel, I've been playing for 5 years now, learning everything from RU-vid, unfortunately there aren't any teachers around my part of the world! Thank god for the Internet!

A wizard is never late, he arrives precisely when he means too!

Really amazed by your work and music. I was looking for the 'tip jar' but couldn't find it? Apparently, it has been renamed to 'Super Thanks' but I still couldn't find it. Is it still there somewhere?

@BennyBleu Месяц назад

Thanks so much for listening along and I'm so glad the lesson helps. It's certainly not required, but you can send tips at paypal.me/bennybleu I appreciate it!

@@BennyBleu Done! I did not quite know where to go with my banjo, torn between Bluegrass and Clawhammer, but now, knowing how you play, Clawhammer it is! Thank you.

Hi Benny, Just discovered your wonderful videos. Are those Nylgut strings on the banjo used in this lesson? Sounds so nice an plunky.

@BennyBleu 2 года назад

Hi Daniel, thanks a lot! Yep, nylon strings on the old Dobson at the second half of the video, steel strings on the Hickory Street banjo in the beginning. Thanks for watching :)
