You know, I have never uploaded any of my music! I write a lot of songs, and have made recordings with my musical partner. We have what we call a cross-time duo. He plays Baroque-era instruments, and I play banjo and African drums for performance. And sing. I love the singing most, I think. We perform songs from the early Renaissance to current faves. Don't make any money with it, just a good way to spend time. I will pick something out to upload. But not that old chestnut from Deliverance! Ha ha.

I am totally available for banjo lessons! It's the best instrument in the history of the known universe.

I don't doubt it. Banjo players always seem like fun people.

Ha ha! Steve Martin is such an awesome player! He was a banjo player way before he was a comedian, there is a fantastic youtube series with him talking with Tony Trischka - it's banjo-informative, funny as hell, and wonderful on too many levels to count. I saw him perform here in ABQ this past year when he was on tour. Worth every saved-up coffee shop penny.
