Growing up in the hills of east Tennessee i have always had a love for the sound of the banjo. After driving dirt track late model race cars for over 12 years and traveling doing stand up comedy for 10 years i finally decided to buy my first banjo in 2010. I took lessons from Ed Wing (the Owl) for 3 1/2 years. Ed gave me the knowledge and training to be able to progress on my own after that. I have spent the past 8 years studying banjo music and banjo music theory. I began to teach myself the clawhammer style in 2019. My hope is to pass on that knowledge to anyone who wants to learn to play this wonderful instrument.
