We have a winner! Congrats, you old thing you!
Listen very carefully during the banjo solo. On the other version I found, you can't hear it.

Or.. at the end of the song, one band member screams; I've got blisters on my fingers.

That was the main reason for the invention of guitars; the fact that they make music is just a happy coincidence.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile. Happily Trapped In the Past (Thanks, Joe) Not only a less than minimally educated person, but stupid and out of touch as well.

She’s claw hammering that guitar... She one of the best cross pickers around too. Check her out playing The white freightliner blues.

I've been into Bluegrass and Mountain Music since I was 18 years old, and this is the first time I've seen "Claw Hammer" guitar.... There's plenty of old time claw hammer banjo players, but not guitar players. This girl is GOOD!

Been crushin' on her pretty hard since I first discovered her a while back. Bought every thing she has out. She has some great players around her too.
This is an old favorite:

There's a video out with her AND Sierra Hull. I about fell into a swoon!
She's maybe 27. Imagine how good she can get. Like most overnight successes, she's been out there since she was a child, playing with her family. Her voice has definitely improved as she "aged". Got a little Joni Mitchell in there, I think.

In the old videos of her playing with her family, she plays the banjo a good bit of the time.
Some of her songs are more Pop than BG, but that's fine. I hope she makes a pile of money.

Yeah, Helter Skelter. Not 100% sure but always thought it was John that said it.
