One of the things I like to do to relax and kick back is to play my banjo. I've done bluegrass banjo with my family and a couple of groups but when I'm just kicking back I like to take the picks off and use a finger style of strum. Now I know this particular method is not a true clawhammer style but it's MY style. I've looked at alot of videos on youtube etc. and I really admire those clawhammer players but it's so foreign to me that I keep coming back to my own style. Maybe in a later video I'll show you my clawhammer style, which is different yet. But I'm playing this rendition of "Higher Ground" just so my friends can see what I'm doing. It's just a shorty, less than a minute, mistakes and all, but I hope you like it!
my foot was stomping for a moment (:
