Go behind-the-scenes at the Fretboard Journal as we interview and hear music from flatpicking guitar legend David Grier. Grier was the cover story for the Fretboard Journal #16 and is widely considered one of the greatest acoustic guitarists alive today.
Fretboard Journal publisher Jason Verlinde interviews Grier about his music-filled childhood (Grier's father Lamar performed was a banjo player for Bill Monroe in the '60s), the influence of Clarence White, his cross-picking technique and more. We also get Grier's thoughts about acoustic guitars, practicing and more.
This is the pilot episode of Fretboard Journal Live, the FJ's new livestreaming interview series. We are proud to have Martin Guitars as our sponsor.

David is SO good it is almost ridiculous. His right hand is absolutely incredible. He is so fluid and rhythmic. He has occupied the Solo Guitar territory with no sign of ever letting it go. He's going to go down in the history books as one of the true great acoustic guitarists, setting the bar so high for younger generations to come.

Mr. David Grier is a cool and down to earth person.. Thank you soo much for the golden lesson.. 🙏, And Thank you to fretboard journal 🙏

@AndrewMcKnightMusic 10 лет назад

I had to laugh out loud a few times during the songs because David played something so absurdly wonderful that us mortals would never even imagine :) Always a treat to see and hear him play, and always an inspiration to get after some new ideas on the guitar.

@mrdogmoon 3 года назад

Wow I remember the first time I seen David Grier in the eighties he was playing in the hallway at a Hotel in St Louis MO. He was playing his guitar just jamming away I couldn’t believe my eyes or ears. Then came along Bull Harmon and he says hey David what’s up then starts jamming with him. What a treat I will never forget it.

@stringbender57 10 лет назад

Excellent interview! David has such a warm, laid back, down home personality. He can play his brains out but yet remains humble. That is a true musician! Black Mountain Rag was the best I ever heard! Great job Jason and Fretboard Journal...more please?!

This guy is absolutely AMAZING !!!!!! Only one thing, it was sponsored by Martin Guitar ?? I thought he would be playing the D 18 or D 28?? Ha Ha ha !!! He could play an old cheap guitar and make it sound priceless !

@ThrashRoC 10 лет назад

His Picking technique is Brilliant , i will learn this because it makes your right hand so Flexable . Thanks for this Video ! David Grier is Phenomenal !

@ThePeteJonesBand 9 лет назад

One of my favourite guitar players. The songs he plays here are all excellent imo. One though in particular is astonishing; watch his right hand during Black Mountain Rag. Begins at the 59:01 mark. Got a chance to meet him in London a month or so back, before his gig with Helen Highwater. Nice Guy and great show.

@jeffloewi5632 4 года назад

I'm watching this for the 2nd or 3rd time and at night I'm practicing with a metronome and trying all the variations David went through on his cross picking journey. The key, as David points out, is being careful not to emphasize any one string so that when it comes time you can emphasize the ones you choose to emphasize. Being gentle on every string is what I think gives David that silky smooth sound that melts in your ears, yeah, like butter.

@Gminor7 10 лет назад

If you haven't seen this, go to the 25:00 minute mark and listen to Red Haired Boy - a masterpiece of 4 and a half minutes of flatpicking, almost all crosspicked.

@jackwilloughby239 Год назад

Playing at Steve Martin's Wedding & Martin Mull (Fernwood Tonight) asking David to play such a fantastic piece! That just blows both sides of my brain! Some Night that must have been! Do the "Wedding Planner People" know about this? And to Top it Off, Black Mt. Rag in I don't know how many keys changes. That's what to do with your 20 mins Before Work Brother. Take a song you know, but don't play and play it in 5 or 6 different keys. Sierra does the same with Wildwood Flower and you see Her using some of the same Left-Hand figures as David. Amazing!

@mbsnyderc 9 лет назад

I think the reason he is comfortable with a higher action is he has really thick finger for a guitar player.a light touch is most likely not his style.

Come for the guitar, stay for the jokes. “In the 60s and 70s there wasn’t much use for a banjo outside of bluegrass…. It was nice back then.”.

@chaffypappus 10 лет назад

aaagh, that story of the D18 getting ruined freakin HURTS to hear

@dobrodave123 9 лет назад

It could be fixed, just needs to try another luthier or two. Put it back to where it was I suppose. Doesn't seem like the kinda guy to try that I guess.
