2-FINGER BANJO VOL. I - INDEX LEAD STYLE
Cultivated in East Kentucky and North Carolina for over 100 years, the two finger picking style has almost been forgotten. Few “old timer” players have mastered this style but fortunately some committed players like Art Rosenbaum and Mike Seeger have preserved this heritage and kept the style present. And now in three installments, Sebastian Schroeder will introduce you to this interesting banjo style.
The first book “2-Finger-Banjo Index Lead Style” focuses on the index finger being the lead.
The index finger is used to pluck the essential melody notes with the fifth string drone is played by the thumb. This technique can be easily used for all songs and you can almost play all Clawhammer tablatures using this style.
This book includes 43 pages for banjo beginners and advanced players, 42 downloadable audio examples and tablature for all exercises and songs.
Songlist:
Boil Them Cabbage Down, Cripple Creek, Cherokee Shuffle, June Apple, Wildwood Flower, Cluck Old Hen, Scarborough Fair, Old Molly Hare, Black Eyed Suzie, Needle Case and John Henry
