Erio Meili on May 10, 2009, picking the tune "Sunday", at 330 bpm at the Titanic Harbor Stage, 660 notes per minute (10 notes per second) - former record was on June15, 2008 at 320 bpm
He passed 5 years ago. He was a great guy, he knew everything about bluegrass and he was an enterteiner. He knew he wasn't the fastest banjo player in the world, but he came with this "Guinéia Book" as a parody of the Guinness book, and there, he was the fastest! lol What a man Erio was! I hope everyone can enjoy without judging or hating. He did a lot for bluegrass in Brazil. Thanks Erio!
+Serjo777 Something about the Space-Time Vortex, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, Tiny Tim, and red jello, for some reason. In other words, I don't get it either, but damn, he can play.
I played this on repeat so many times I forgot my pizza was in the oven and it started to burn. 0:28 started playing in my head as I rushed to the oven!
Ya gotta be careful wif dem dere teef. Mar granpaw tells me e slep wif his hed under a pillow once and one of dem toof fairies come and stole awl his teef.
As I Was Younger, Very Much I Liked Each Year. My Mom Bringing Me To A Beautiful Southern Part Of Missouri, To A Great Blue Grass Festival. Which The Music Was Great With Of Course Banjo Playing, And So This Guy Was Excellent As He Played !!
@@CheeseMan68_1 this guy playing its from brazil.. maybe an germanic diaspora or a confederate diaspora in sao paulo, Americana and Santa Barbara cities.
@@roddypampa3906 When you press the translate to english feature it transforms Brasil into a U.S flag. Still dont know why the app translates stuff to english for me when I have everything set to spanish but whatever thats the glitch he was referring to
Best getaway music I've ever heard lol. Seriously, some of the best banjo-picking imaginable. If this would have been Earl Scruggs the song would have been a classic.
Wayne Morrison Are you illiterate or something? The title says he's the fastest player in the world, not that this is a video of him playing at a fast pace.
Well not even the creators of "through fire and flames" can play it live cause that song is made on a mixertable. but then again dragonforce sucks ballz and they also use playback on all there concerts...
Sorry .. but this was horrifying. I'm always apprehensive about someone being the 'best' or 'fastest' anything, and I know the poster means well, but if you want to talk about the "Fastest, CLEANEST" banjo picker.. might want to start with Little Roy Lewis.
I just started playing. Just picking chords. The way he moved around the fret board and those crazy dope ass rolls. He's damn good. Don't think I'm getting to that level...umm...ever.
Sorry, but Bela, Noam, Allison, and a slew of others are much faster, better, clearer, and original. It's still some decent pickin' though! I heard Bryan Sutton say he prefers a solid melody loud and clear over a bunch of jumbled noted slammed together. Tempo comes with time...and practice...
Looks like all the truth comments have been removed. This is some sloppy picking. I played with Buck Trent when I was fourteen. Believe me, this guy is not fast by any stretch of the imagination.
When your playing red dead redemption 2 and the law is after you
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭
So true lol
Bruh in every comment section of every slightly popular bluegrass video someone has to make a connection to red dead redemption. Kinda cringe 😬
@@mattyice9300 eh, it happens. Guess RDR is probably some people’s first experience of bluegrass, so it might be the only thing they have to go by.
@@mattyice9300 how so?

What did he die of?
How would you know this
@@ojreillyy it is true. Erio Meili. He passed in April 2011.

Same as well.

GOD GOSH DARN BROUGHT US ALL HERE FOR A GOD DAMN REASON
Don't matter how fast you are. It's the feeling in the song and music.
listened to this in my boat in Norway, it turned into a canoo going down an agressive river in Tennessee
Ha ha he he, And I can nearly hear Leif Erickson hollering ," squeal! little piggy squeal!" , as you're running to drop anchor
This makes me want to take a canoe trip down a river.
it would make me paddle faster
It would make me squeal like a pig.
It'd make me paddle faster cause im afraid i got pirdy mouth and I don't wanna squeal like a pig

there's this kid in Georgia I met once named Johnny who played the banjo, he's the best there's ever been.
Honestly couldn't tell if he is the fastest... They all seem pretty fast.
I listened to this and my home shifted to a hillcliff in southeastern US.

You play that dang mighty fine mister
Can’t hardly see the man’s fingers as he played good stuff! Thanks enjoyed that immensely!
And to add even more culture...the Titanic in the background.
Thanks for posting this guy is so good I think Roy Clark would be impressed
Anybody can do that wearing a hat.
Legend says that you can still here him at Titanic Harbor Stage today.

Johan Löppönen, the title says "Sunday". It makes sense.
he looks exactly how i would imagine the worlds fastest banjo player to look like
🇧🇷 um orgulho! Parabéns pelo talento e dedicação
Hold up why does the Brazil flag translate to American flag?
@@CheeseMan68_1 this guy playing its from brazil.. maybe an germanic diaspora or a confederate diaspora in sao paulo, Americana and Santa Barbara cities.

no cousin will turn him down now
what the fuck? this is average banjo playing. Earl Scruggs would demolish this guy with one hand.
true............I like metallica.
They didn’t start chasing us until you put on that get away music
Why am i watching this at 4am
Jajaja xd
It’s 12 at night and I’ve got a ton of shit to do in the morning and I’m watching this instead of going to sleep
TO BYŁO NIESAMOWITE!!!
potwierdzę, również po Polsku
Po 10 latach też mam okazję to zobaczyć
Fantastic musical performance !
I'd like to hear him play Dueling Banjos and Devil Went Down To Georgia. That would be the shit!
I love this!! Like a soundtrack to what I feel like when I am in the flow at work or on a trail run...
This is actually 165 bpm. Any good banjo player can play this fast, including me on a good day when I'm warmed up.
Woah! As a banjo player I’m instantly impressed by this guy!
Earls Scruggs might not be just as fast but damn he's fast and he plays CLEAN!
I've always loved banjo music because one person can make it sound like four are actually playing.
great talent; but he is behind the count on this piece. Needs to slow the count until he can be on tempo with the current bpm. Nice job though
exactly what you'd expect a banjo player to look like
yoh got a purdy mouth boy.top notch
This man's hands must been fucking diamond coated cuz he didn't end up cutting off his fingers with the amount of notes that he was playing
now this is a song i can dab to
XD

Weird
Anyways, I bet the ladies love him
legend has it his fingers still haven't come to a full stop.
Maravilhos!! Parabens e obrigado pela homenagem ao Brasil!
yes the steely twang of the banjo in high speed play is remarkable and praiseworthy,bless his play and the fingers
this is fucking awesome i destroy the like buton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the ship in the background had been able to turn as fast as he played, it might not have hit that big piece of ice in the middle of that big ocean.
Cara Voçê é Demais !!!!
Parabens !!!!!!
What do you do? Poop in your stew!
Amen brother!
I just played along and found out I'm faster than the world's fastest banjo player...wow!
Wayne Morrison
Are you illiterate or something?
The title says he's the fastest player in the world, not that this is a video of him playing at a fast pace.
NOW, I understand.....
Man Jschlatt sure has great playing skills
He's good, but he aint got nottin can compare with Earl Scruggs.
That was better than me which is good so bravo!
You yee'd your last haw
🤠🤠🤠🤠
Yahoooaaa!!! What a great solo man! Good job
Yeah well I bet he can't play Through the Fire and Flames
Well not even the creators of "through fire and flames" can play it live cause that song is made on a mixertable. but then again dragonforce sucks ballz and they also use playback on all there concerts...
their*
if fans are able to play dragonforce songs then why cant the owner of the song ?
Because they spend all the their time learning one song when a creator spends all their time creating multiple songs.
they should still be able to play THEIR OWN songs
It touches a lot and the blouse of brazil is beautiful.
Sorry .. but this was horrifying. I'm always apprehensive about someone being the 'best' or 'fastest' anything, and I know the poster means well, but if you want to talk about the "Fastest, CLEANEST" banjo picker.. might want to start with Little Roy Lewis.
How about Earl Scruggs?
What about the genetically challenged hillbilly from "Deliverance"?
neckarsulme You best be careful who you call hillbilly son
the32712 Oh, are you talking about the hillbilly in "Deliverance"? You mean that hillbilly junior?
neckarsulme He weren't a hillbilly, he was mountain folk. A mountain man.
Excellent 👌
Skip to 0:25, then close the window at 0:35 because the music sucks.

I just started playing. Just picking chords. The way he moved around the fret board and those crazy dope ass rolls. He's damn good. Don't think I'm getting to that level...umm...ever.
Jonny Mizzone could have beaten this guy when he was still 8 years old.
I was just thinking that!

Now check out Sleepy Man Banjo Boys.
Keith Purdue Their a bunch of hacks. They take advantage of people like you
The youngest kid is the only one excellent in that group
yes they're all good, but not as highly as you're making them seem
Still waiting to see the world's fastest banjo player.
Sorry, but Bela, Noam, Allison, and a slew of others are much faster, better, clearer, and original.
It's still some decent pickin' though!
I heard Bryan Sutton say he prefers a solid melody loud and clear over a bunch of jumbled noted slammed together.
Tempo comes with time...and practice...
Its that time where i started with italian mafia documentary and now linked all the way to this some how. Sounds good though
Is that a backdrop from the movie Titanic?
75 years ago, there was Foggy Mountain Breakdown by Earl Scruggs., which was pretty quick, too.
Yeah, that wasn't 10 notes per second.
This made brother Cleetus happy.
I want a banjo! they sound annoying
SafeBox good point to annoy my brother
SafeBox get some bagpipes mate!
I did ask mum if I could have bagpipes, she said no!
have no idea why it was a no... I said I'd play them "quietly" in my room haha
Maybe a didgereedoo then!
Plot twist: he went back in time to audition for Wallace Hartley’s band
BRASIL!!!!
Slowest banjo player in Eastern Mississippi
Sleepy man banjo boys are faster
yeah
I understand that’s a special shirt he’s wearing and there is another person actually playing the banjo.
Chuck Norris can play faster without touching it.
i just need more and more of this. every day. forever. hot damn
Looks like all the truth comments have been removed. This is some sloppy picking. I played with Buck Trent when I was fourteen. Believe me, this guy is not fast by any stretch of the imagination.
Not hard to imagine a bunch of kids getting run out of town in some old movie.
