Salad Bowl "gourdless" Gourd Banjo #2 - Deep Creek Strings




Title:
Salad Bowl "gourdless" Gourd Banjo #2 - Deep Creek Strings

Description:
My second salad bowl banjo. This one has a goat skin head tacked on to a salad bowl hand cafted by a local wood turner, Ron Thompson. I also demo the banjo. Please be kind, I'm a beginner (a month ago I could barely bum-ditty). The quality of the video isn't as good as I'd like.

David Beede - Gourd Banjo - P.K. Yonge - "Two Seeds"
A "metaphor wrapped in a riddle" song... mix 36 first graders, a gourd banjo, and a therapy dog named Mocha... and this is what you get. Their vibrant artistry and unrestrained singing is a total pleasure! Some have asked about what program we used for the Ken Burns effect. It is Photo to Movie.
