Dixieland
Banjo
- DJML
-The Dixieland Jazz mailing list. If you have a
question about Dixieland banjo-styles history etc.,
there will be somebody on this list that can give
an answer or even better several answers.
- Marty
Grosz This fellow is best known for his
guitar but he does play the banjo. In fact his
guitar tuning is a hybrid form of Plectrum and
Tenor banjo tuning. Regardless of what he plays,
make an effort to get to hear him. In my opinion
he is what the rhythm player should be. I don't
think there is a better one around.
- David
Littlefield's Web Pages Good description of
how to play Dixieland e-mail David Littlefield for
more information.
- Hot
Links For those of you interested in
Dixieland style, a page of links that provides a
full plate of information about Dixieland
specifically with quite a list of bands and the
names of a number of string banjo players therein
included.
