That is some of the cleanest, clearest, and most efficient banjo picking I've ever heard. You're really doing that Bowtie justice. Glad you all landed in my feed!
This is true, lol it's not fair, but I judge bluegrass bands by their banjo player. If they aren't good and clean , I'm just not gonna listen to them much. Awesome job!
As one progresses through the video timelines, that 5 string is comin' on strong, triplets, JD Crowe signature moves, Earl down pat, rock solid tempo and ' drummer ' for this band. Wonderful to see and hear ,, bluegrass music in great hands with this band.
Her playing reminds me of Grandpa Jones. I don't hear true pickin much anymore it seems like everyone does the claw hammer which is nice but that fancy pickin can't be beat.
@rockofagesusa7942 You are right about that. Banjos and fiddles can both be very much in your face playing over top of everyone else. That's not the case with Sarah. She knows when to attack and when to lay back.
Isn't it though?? Sarah's back-up work is one of the first things that caught my attention, when I first discovered "B.B.B's" videos, early last year! She plays a lot of J.D. Crowe-style back-up, which I've been trying to learn for years! Unfortunately, I was never able to get a clear camera view on any of J.D's televised shows, nor the shows of any banjo players who play some of J.D.'s stuff! Now thanks to these great videos of "Backwoods" with a VERY CLEAR view of Sarah's playing; I finally see how it's done! Now, I just have to replace my stolen '62 Vega 5-String, so that I can sit down and play this great stuff I've been watching!! 😊 Ron Abilene, TX. P.S. With those last two "Banjer" breaks, I'd say that Sarah was just plain, pure, "KICKIN' GRASS!!" 😊 WTG, Sarah!! As Eddie Stubbs would say: "Aww it just DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT!!" R.
I don't think it's a coincidence that Sarah is both the most noteworthy player in this arrangement as well as the sound engineer for this song. She is oozing talent. As a fellow (novice) banjo player I can appreciate just how damn good the studio recording is of this song - the dynamics, riffs, precision, just incredible. I would love to get a tab or lesson if possible. Thank you for sharing this with us. It is my favorite song as of late. Cheers from Eastern NC.
Thanks for all those videos. So nice to listen to your band . Sarah, I’m learning banjo and you really inspire me to keep on practicing . I love your banjo playing . Tks a lot
Nice kickoff and lead by Hunter this time and a very impressive banjo lead by Sarah. Austin's lead vocal and the solid harmonies sound great. Rusty's rock solid bass ties it all together. Very nice job by all!
Sarah… I have been playing banjo for 50 years! I just discovered your picking about a week ago and needless to say, I love to hear you play!! So clean and tasteful. Keep it up!!
Obviously, I, as an American, heard this song first at the end of my favorite show. My son plays fiddle. So this rendition was so sweet to me. My son thought it was depressing, but he is young and didnt understand the long tem meaning. I love this dong.
A favourite song of mine. Love Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway's version. Love this banjo player, love this mando pickin singer, love this band, love this,(more traditional style) version. Peace and love.
Just as fine as the earlier version, perhaps even more so with the close-up video and the better sound. The banjo break as before, is truly mesmerizing! But really, everyone contributes just fine to this remarkable performance. Backwoods Bluegrass is doing it good!
Holly cow,that bango is spot on with lead ins and turn arounds and leads
She makes it look easy! Very, very talented.
Banjo player continues to refine her skills. Not overdone at all. Perfect blend to melody. Bravo!
I think that’s the best banjo playing I’ve ever heard. I could listen to her all day . Using licks I’ve never heard before . But not overdone .
Man, that banjo is really tight and hitting some great licks.
So pleasant to listen to. No ones off key and not trying to run a race with your instruments. You're making such great music.
AND THAT'S THE TRUTH! Nothing worst that racing through a song.
Good harmony and that young lady is really a talented banjo player
That Gibson is kicking
As a former truck driver, I approve this message...
Love the clean, simple sound. Banjo player is smooooth and crisp.
And gorgeous.
That is some of the cleanest, clearest, and most efficient banjo picking I've ever heard. You're really doing that Bowtie justice. Glad you all landed in my feed!

Amazing, isn't it?
As one progresses through the video timelines,
that 5 string is comin' on strong,
triplets,
JD Crowe signature moves,
Earl down pat,
rock solid tempo and ' drummer ' for this band.
Wonderful to see and hear ,,
bluegrass music in great hands with this band.
Her playing reminds me of Grandpa Jones. I don't hear true pickin much anymore it seems like everyone does the claw hammer which is nice but that fancy pickin can't be beat.
I am from Russia and I love american country music! Good luck! This is very good! Thank you!!! ❤
Quite beautiful delivery and sensitive harmony a great group,,,,,Hurray
This is one of my favourite bands. That voice and those strings always sing me to my happy place!
Now THAT'S country right there! Great job guys. Keep em coming
❤❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
It was a pleasure singing along!!
this lady on the banjo is so gifted....great band great sound..
👍
Talent in spades but what I enjoy most is the relaxed and smooth approach to expressing through their instruments and vocals what they love
I’ve been listening a lot cuz I fell in love with the band. Tonight I’m absolutely fixed on how GREAT the stand up bassist is ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very good job on this. I really like all of you but I love the banjo picker. Not only is she beautiful but maybe the smoothest picker I've heard.
they are all good but that banjo picker is awesome!!
You should locate their first clip of this from about six years ago, before Sarah married.
I couldn't agree more! Impressive! But Love them ❤ all!
@rockofagesusa7942 You are right about that. Banjos and fiddles can both be very much in your face playing over top of everyone else. That's not the case with Sarah. She knows when to attack and when to lay back.
Brilliant, super banjo playing 👏🏻😊
Best banjo ever ❤.
Just hope that bands like this are up in heaven when I finally make it up there so I can listen to them forever
Nothing much sweeter this side of heaven! Great job you two!
My favorite banjo player these days!!!
I could listen to this all day long. Pure and clean!!!
I Listen mote time never boring ❤
Really love her playing Anyone can take a break but her backup is fantastic.
Isn't it though?? Sarah's back-up work is one of the first things that caught my attention, when I first discovered "B.B.B's" videos, early last year!

Really doing this classic justice. Townes would be smiling from ear to ear. 💯
SO GOOD, tingles on top of tingles!! I hope y’all are on a stage on a regular basis.❤️

This is the best version of this song. Seriously, its so good.
Have to agree the cleanest I’ve heard in a long time. Beautiful harmony also.
An absolute great song that should be played all across the land…it’s got very good blue grass music ….and it’s got a real true story to tell ………
Amazing Sarah play the Banjo 👌
Good job and especially amazing banjo solo, thanks..
I have to agree about the banjo picker. One of the best. Makes it look so easy.
Nice kickoff and lead by Hunter this time and a very impressive banjo lead by Sarah. Austin's lead vocal and the solid harmonies sound great. Rusty's rock solid bass ties it all together. Very nice job by all!
Absolutely love the harmonizing!
Great band, great harmony & great songs. Very relaxing in this stressful world.😃
My brothers favorite song.
Makes my 78-year-old young friend feel at home. Now, if he shut up and let me enjoy your music. JJ from Reno NV. Thank you.
Very nice bluegrass! 🤩
Okay. I’m jumping in to do this one tonight at our local jam. Recruited some help from some banjo buddies. Wish me luck!
Great sounding group. And that banjo. Wow!
Great guitar and banjo picking!😊

A favourite song of mine. Love Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway's version. Love this banjo player, love this mando pickin singer, love this band, love this,(more traditional style) version. Peace and love.
Just as fine as the earlier version, perhaps even more so with the close-up video and the better sound. The banjo break as before, is truly mesmerizing! But really, everyone contributes just fine to this remarkable performance. Backwoods Bluegrass is doing it good!
