Come inside Cabin Camp with my advanced banjo class to learn some boogie woogie banjo backup! What's great about this approach is that the licks are all "closed" which means we can take them to any key or chord we need!

    Is there a jam track for this at a slower tempo? 90 is still a bit quick for me.

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

    Welcome aboard — you picked a good one to start on.

    Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.
