Clawhammer Banjo: 'Cripple Creek'

[bagmanphilosophical]

Man why doesn’t stuff like this blow up. It 100% deserves it

[AGuyThatMakesStuff]

You’re telling me, a bassist, that all this time I could’ve slapped the banjo like a bass? Sign me up

Love it! Nylon string clawhammer banjos have such a great sound...

[themainteadude]

I like your vocal man, it's just goes so clean on cripple creak

[driftymcsceeeert]

Not just some great banjo 🪕 you have a great voice as well 👍

[robertiglauer]

I have this on repeat, going on now for about an hour

I love clawhammer style. Thats how how banjo was originally played before they pir resonators on it and used picks and stuff. Its amazing hearing the original banjo tune. I love banjo either way though. Im currently learning it myself. Wanted to pick up a new instrument and decided on banjo.

I want a banjo so I can play it for my future kids out on the porch one day. Just comfy fire, night out, and chilly air with a comfy banjo playing.

This is great. I was just sitting here playing a clawhammer version of Cripple Creek on a new Ozark Banjo Co. Banjo that I just bought yesterday in Mt View Arkansas, and this popped up in my feed. 😂 Is YouTube listening to me?!?! (This is from 4 months ago, and it just popped in my feed)

I have been looking for a slower version of this tune and I found it. You should have over 100K likes

Wow I didn't even know this song has lyrics!! Great playing hope I could learn that someday soon too!!!

[dorindacontreras]

So sweet! Great jammin’ beat. Reminds me a little bit of Dwight Diller. Super good.

I don't know what Georgia style actually means but Josh has syncopated way of articulating skip notes that seems uniquely his. And it sounds awesome. Heck of a banjo player.

[gabesmith]

I like the Georgia version of cripple creek because Im a Georgia person and southern (and probably a country person)

[stminnsharpshooters]

classic tune pard *LIKED* and *SUBSCRIBED*

[fickleblumper]

POV- your tied up in a 14 foot flat bottom boat with a old 5 horse evinrude and your killer is sitting facing you and playing this before you take a forever dive into 8 feet of water.😂😂😂😂😂😂
