Haunting blues banjo / clawhammer banjo

In double C minor, this tune I wrote is a bit haunting it made me think of things in the past.

I live in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina, and this is the sound of what I see on a still misty morning at dawn looking out towards across the field to the woods, and I see something moving out there but can't tell what it is yet.... So beautiful. Thanks.

if you were an npc in red dead redemption 2 I would sit nearby and listen for hours

That’s beautiful 🙏🏻 I find it so refreshing to listen to all sorts of down to earth artists from YouTube. Extremely produced music that’s basicly everywhere nowadays sounds so flat and uninteresting, and I’m pretty sure it makes people stupid also 😅

My daddy grew up in a holler deep in coal country in the Appalachians. He picked up a banjo when he was 8, and played every day all his life. He played clawhammer banjo, too. That was the soundtrack of my raising.

Thank you for your music, and the memories it brought me.

I keep coming back to listen to you playing this… definitely haunting and so something I cannot describe - thank you!!♥️

So much human soul in this musical piece. All sentient beings can relate.

my family played the blues and we was enslaved in Virginia, North and South Carolina, this speaks to me on such a deep level thank you for giving me something my ancestors would have played, i believe you essentially evoking them right now and their spirit. Thank you, many blessings to you.

Beautiful!
I live in southeastern KY, not too far from the hills of eastern KY. This music is only one step removed from what we call Bluegrass around here. It is haunting and steeped in tradition and lore. Music passed down through time by descendants of immigrants who settled the mountainous areas of Appalachia and the upper south.
This music is as much a part of the land as those who call this area home.

I’m laying in bed and came across this clip. Sent a shiver down my spine. Beautifully haunting. It definitely reminds me of the past, reminds me of struggle, people hardened by time, dust in your eyes and throat, a hard sun beating down, strength and courage - not cuz your brave but because you have no other choice but to be those things. With a song like this, close your eyes and allow one’s mind to think a millions thoughts. Simply magnificent.

I'm not a big banjo fan, but this is remarkable. I didn't know a banjo could sound this sweet. Haunting is the word for sure. Thanks.

This track runs deep, Like an ancient dirt road. I love this track.

Makes me imagine a long opening shot for a western, moving through a dusty little town as people go about their business.

I spent most of my childhood in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia listening to banjo, and this reminds me so much of Dr. Ralph Stanley’s moon rising over the dark hill clawhammer style. It’s absolutely bewitching. If you ever travel across the pond to the states I’d love to hear you play. ❤

I lost the use of my shoulder, but I never lost the love of playing the clawhammer banjo.

[NewHopeAudio]

This is the best banjo tone. Beautiful playing. Thank you for sharing.

As a Southerner an a bluegrass and country-western fan - I appreciate this. It did take me back a bit into the past. Awesome.

[elaineerskine]

[abigailbeth]
