- Next stop on the Less is More Tour is Los Angeles to play a house concert. I got to spend a Saturday morning at Santa Monica beach and found a shady palm to sit under and play Big Sciota. A beautiful tune which was just released as a single from the upcoming album 'Banjo Meditations'.
Banjo is tuned in G (gDGBD), however on the record I'm tuned down to D (same relative tuning though: dADFsharpA)

Wow! There's nothing more heavenly than the sound of a Banjo.
Especially clawhammer.

Beautiful 👏🙂
Very nice.. elegantly played..
Thanks for listening!
Hey there Benny! I was at your show in KC this past Wednesday and spoke with you afterwards. It was a pleasure and a fortune to see you perform live.
Hey Mason! Great meeting you and thanks for following along. Catch you further on down the road.
This was perfect for my morning, thanks :)
Excellent 👍👍
Nails Benny...Safe Travels!
amazing tone!
Love your playing.
Thanks Dennis!
Wish i had your feel of rhythm and timing.
You got it! Do you ever listen to James Brown?
Great! I live in the county where The Sciota starts!
Cool! All the maps say Scioto, but all the old time records say Sciota or even Scioty... so I never know what to call it! I'd love to get a local's perspective?
@@BennyBleu Sci-O-ta! It meets the Olentangy (known as the old and dingy) on it's way to the Ohio River. Great playing, btw!
Your playing is such an inspiration. I absolutely love your albums. Is this filmed with just an iPhone? Your tone comes through so awesome
Thanks so much, it means a lot that other banjo players are listening along 8^) For this video I had a zoom H2 (small audio recorder) stuffed into the back of the banjo! I like getting sound from the back of the banjo because it tends to be deeper and ringy-er.
that was beautiful ❤ do you teach online ? :)
Thanks! Not much these days. If you sign up for my mailing list, I'll let folks know when I'm doing more lessons again. bennybleu.com/mailinglist/
What brand/model of banjo is this? Sounds nice.
Thanks! It's a Bart Reiter Standard.
Great arrangement & playing. Thnx.
- But having a scoop and not use it ?
No forgive, Gringo.. 😊
Thank you! haha, the scoop - there is a time and a place! I do use it often, just was going for a different sound on this I guess.
