All the kudos are deserving for Kristin, and I chime in too! In addition, kudos to the Deering Company for hosting these artist features...Thank You SO much..I play a Deering Sierra (don't remember what Kristin played), and it is set up super duper...So glad for it!
Kristen taught me how to play banjo the right way !! after trying for months watching from UA-cam and other free forums -I finally was able to obtain weekly lessons from her and I was very lucky for that! She taught me from heart and I really believe that you are only as good as your teacher in every form of life incluing banjo
I watched this live and immediately went to Amazon and bought KSB's beginner book. I've being trying to learn from videos for a couple of years now and hit a wall. Watching this made me realize that I had missed some very basic stuff. I've already read/watched Lessons 1 & 2 multiple times and am starting back over from scratch to unlearn some bad habits. Her instruction style is very helpful. I hope you have her on again soon!
I liked hearing Kristin Scott Benson play “Goodbye, Liza Jane” in this video. I heard the Highwoods String Band play “Goodbye, Miss Liza” that’s another song about Liza Jane. They played old-time music.
Yes, the 🪕 camp last year … good players are not always the best teachers … but Kristin is for sure one of those players who can teach as well - saying this as a teacher myself 😊
I 'm so sorry I could be here for the live feed. I'm getting a new puppy in 48 hours. I wanted to ask Kristin how to balance banjo practice with the demands of every day life. I'm sure the answer is buried in the show somewhere!
Here is the book that Kristin references during the show. Enjoy... www.deeringbanjos.com/collections/banjo-learning-tools/products/first-15-lessons-banjo-a-beginners-guide
I would really love to learn the Lick at the 58 minute mark. I think it is a G7. Is there a lesson you can direct me to so I can learn this one? Thank you, and thank you for putting on this backup session.
What a massive talent! She's an icon in the bluegrass world. I could listen to her talk banjo for hours.

What a great help this was with my playing, many thanks Kristin 👍
Incredible
I find my self listening to this over and over. Picked up some great concepts, especially her chord grouping.... fascinating.
Excellent explanations, Kristin. I think I understand backup because of it. Thanks a ton!
Wow wow - so helpful!
Great lesson, looking forward to practicing tomorrow.
Good lesson. It’s very useful to have those backup rolls simplified even for those us who have been hacking away at the banjo for many decades.
Always a grand musician…☮️🎶🔛🌎
Great information for all levels

She has to be a great player because she seems to be a fantastic teacher.
That’s one good sounding banjo.
Thanks 4 the interesting interview & greeting from Costa Rica
Welsh Wayne .Best backup lessen to date
She's been my favorite since the "Sally & The Sidewinders" days.
Thanks so much.

Oh wow -- does Kristin play "Blackbird"? I don't see her playing it on UA-cam anywhere, but the little bit she played here had a beautiful sound.
Thanks, Kristin. I use your book. It’s a great tutorial - written words and videos. I enjoy your playing style. Best wishes.

Self-tuning banjo? Don't you know that a banjo can't ever be tuned?🙃🤣
Valid point!
