Fretless Friday 7- Angeline the Baker

[@mrmoose7844]

I did not notice any background noise. I do enjoy your videos so much. I'm 80 live alone in Ohio. You are sunshine in my day. Thank you Phoebe!

"I am fretting a little bit." Not allowed on Fretless Friday!

[@sonofhibbs4425]

😄

[@J.n.A.1993]

Dropped into comments to say just that! Thank you @ZeusBrown! 😂

[@pikmin4743]

like the blues, you have to feel it before you can release it :)

[@fomosapian6790]

😂

[@scottbarrett-bugleinkeyofg3069]

How do you know where to put your fingers without frets?

[@alancandy6080]

Never worry about hitting the odd duff note. A pro musician I knew used to say ‘If I don’t hit at least five wrong notes in a concert, I know I’m not trying.’ You are always authentic and you can’t buy that nowadays.

[@tmcmurdo826]

Phoebe, I hope you know how much joy you bring to all of us. You and your chickens are a treasure.

[@dancochrane617]

Thanks. I’ve never heard anyone play banjo better than this. If someone doesn’t like this they have something wrong with them. Keep the faith and keep on shining

[@SleddogMicker]

You rock, Phoebe! Keep 'em coming!

[@geoffb108]

I love the way your face expresses such joy and shows instantly when you are not on your expected note. Delightful session. That hat so suits your quirky style. This could start a fashion trend.❤❤

[@bosthebozo5273]

I'm so glad i found this channel. Excellent performance! 👏🏻 🐔

[@ChefSpinney]

Just stumbled on your 'Down to the River' video and came straight to here. Good progress! Also, beautiful chickens.

[@MichaelMiller-ny3rr]

It went very well! ❤️

[@susansanders9159]

Matching the chicken! Brilliant!

[@piguy3point14]

*scours Amazon for matching Pi Guy the Daddy/Dante the Husky Dawg matching outfits*

[@君子ロベルト]

I really like that [play open string + slide to the same note] feature. Besides: Never hide noise. The ultra clean super edited stuff of nowadays productions is far from the real world. You are presenting the world as it is while adding value to it.

[@robertknox4018]

Agreed! I like the realness of these videos. There is something so whimsical about these videos. They are just real and that is what makes them beautiful

[@SheilaghRiordan]

Totally agree that she is adding value to the world

[@cactus2304]

i mean... there's a difference between editing out the realness of a recording and putting a wind muffling mic on during a windy day lol. like i'm glad we're not hearing a lawnmower during the recording

[@richardmulcahy1535]

Phoeb, if there was a Nobel Peace Prize for fretless banjo, I would nominate You!

[@JoshSaysStuff]

I mean, her playing DOES give us peace, so I’d say she’s a contender!

[@damoon2631]

Glad I found this!! It's like a breath of fresh mountain air on a crisp morning! Thanks!!!

[@KevinLuby-s1i]

The only background I hear are the house sparrows. Your fretless Fridays are a weekly treat.

[@tommylitchfield3450]

When I saw that Tri-corn hat, I just KNEW that you were going to channel your inner Patrick Henry and shout to the mountaintops "Give Me Fretless, or Give Me DEATH!!"

[@THEMANWITHTHEYELLOWHAT.]

Lol

[@skyedog24]

Paul Revere would have accepted you into his raiders band😊 especially with the colonial hat! 🪕

[@jeanmelanson448]

What a wonderful video! Such art in such an easy way of doing things! Colorful, playful and your love shines through for your music and animals! Thanks.

[@acbenepe]

When I was a wee one my Mom and dad would sing a song that went: "My hat it has three corners, three corners has my hat. If it didn't have three cornes, it wouldn't be my hat".

[@lynn3556]

We sang that 3 corner hat song in music class more than 50 years ago in elementary school.

[@MichaelMiller-ny3rr]

Love the Hat!... the flower is a nice touch! 🐔

[@brendalee8694]

Very enjoyable to watch; thanks for sharing your gift 💝 with us!!!

[@stevenboyd593]

Good sound, good hat, great fowls and tune for the fretless. Tis Friday and frett free

[@saracroft21]

[@futuredirected]

Excellent Fretless Friday! It is a great joy to watch You expand Your banjo virtuosity, with chicken backup. Keep doing what You’re doing, and pretty soon, You’ll be sliding into perfect intonation and rhythm. I hear it coming. ❤🪕❤

[@RalfyCustoms]

Yeehaw! great hat, great chuck, and always a great tune Phebes, thanks for sharing and a wonderful weekend to you hun

[@michaelhoernschemeyer6794]

I soo look forward to fretless Friday. Thank you!

[@nerdgarage]

[@kek6342]

Love the hat! Great tune!🙏💜🤗

[@sannekimenai639]

wow, what an amazing video Phoebe! you are really improving and I loved the looks and interactions with the chickens. And that hat is really amazing! You really helped me not to fret on this friday!

[@aleithiatoews6452]

I love the thunder in the background.

[@raktoda707]

Delightful ! Those chicken friends are strutting and a posing. Your technique is so smooth Your right the hat is perfect!

[@kg6mov]

Hat and chicken both did well, mighty fine banjo playing too.

[@musicalmiscellany]

Ahh. It’s a black silkie! They’re a friendly breed. We had a black cochin that my wife referred to as “the lap chicken”. 😂 nice playing on that fretless.

[@young1939]

Phoebe, I stumbled onto your site accidently but I am sure enjoying your fretless Friday. Sounds great to me. Love you. 💕💕💕

[@Naturlich133]

You're getting better every time! Love this Phoebe!

[@Batmandabomb]

[@crochet18burple]

Love the hat. I enjoy fretless Friday

[@brucewinningham4959]

"Angeline The Baker," A.K.A. "Angelina Baker" was written by Stephen Foster in the 1800's. He also wrote My Old Kentucky Home, Oh Suzannah, etc.

[@joeladams338]

Wonderful escape from the world. Keep it up. Thank you.

[@eialzorn9284]

yay! cool! it's my favorite folksong!

[@tylermiller4182]

This has become a favourite channel. Aside from the music, which is wonderful, the vibe makes me feel like the world is a kinder and more whimsical place than it usually does.

[@michaelayers4174]

The sound and music are great.

[@MichaelBCoats]

Dr. Phoebe, I love Fretless Friday! You are improving. Keep workin' on those slides. It was a nice day here in Western PA today, and I visited friends who have chickens. We sat on the porch and watched them. It made me think of my favorite practitioner of banjo! Much love and God's blessings to you, Doc! ♥♥♥♥♥

[@cprendon3]

Love the tricorn!

[@tlb2732]

The audio quality from the new mic was very good. I could hear background noise but it was nowhere near annoying. I wouldn't have noticed it had you not pointed it out. The clearness and authenticity of the banjo was definitely noticable to my ears over my Android phone.

[@pauljarine]

I love your videos and music. Thank you for making them.

[@elout680]

That's a cool hat!

[@jamesbondpa]

I really enjoyed this tune. Loving the slide on that banjo. Thank you!

[@BookOfMormon4GenZ]

You’re cute, chickens 🐓 are cute, fretless banjo is amazing! Thank you bringing your talent…

[@carlericvonkleistiii2188]

The microphone sounded very good!. I like the two string slide it adds depth to the chord. Thanks for another Fretless Friday!

[@hillbillyhorse9674]

Love that tri-corn hat and love the fact that your chickens name is Squidward!

[@sonofhibbs4425]

Heard no background noise. Just beautiful birds. I can’t gauge whether or not you’ve improved because it all sounds great to me. (I play music also but not guitar-I’m a synth person) I’m just here for the refreshing vibe. …and chickens. …Which reminds me to go outside and feed mine right now! 😊 Have a great weekend.

[@6lu5ky86]

I'm a huge synth gear head, what's your favorite synthesizer?

[@roymundy3688]

I've started looking forward to fretless Fridays. Another great tune 👌 loving the hat too. Great work 👏 ❤🎉

[@Josh_Fredman]

What a splendid hat!

[@josefdetzer3260]

❤Love listening a seeing

[@a_disgruntled_snail]

I adore that hat.

[@DavidJeffries-d8g]

I don’t know who made and sent you that hat but it is absolutely YOU!!! Love it! Also love your picking!

[@Soundguydan]

Love it! The hat and the song.

[@gerardcousineau3478]

You did 👍😊🕊️

[@MichaelEdelman1954]

Your intonation on that banjo is definitely improving!

[@NO-GAMES]

You is amazing, lovin your music lil darlin.😊❤

[@JamesPaulsen-cl6qq]

You are a treasure and a great mother and wife of the future. Mountain folk would order banjos and such from Sears and file the frets off.

[@here-right-here]

Great hat! 😎

[@edwardschmitt5710]

You make life better. The sound was great The new Mic is definitely doing it's thing.

[@andyperkins8620]

The only background noise I hear are birds chirping when you’re not playing but they just add to your great videos. You are improving on the fretless. The slides sound great. Thanks for another awesome Fretless Friday!!!!!

[@Crazy_lutenist]

Вообще прекрасно! Ты рассказала на своем инструменте (сыграла) все, что с тобой произошло за прошедшую неделю! :-) Музыкальный отчёт о проделанной работе. :-) У тебя замечательно получается рассказать! как прошла твоя неделя. А у нас ещё рано траву косить. Газонокосилку я буду использовать только месяца через два! Хорошей и доброй и интересной этой недели тебе желаю! :-)

[@lynn3556]

Love it and the adorable chickens!

[@SteveCondron]

You made my Friday. I had been fretting a little.

[@6lu5ky86]

She's gathered us here today, and every Friday with inspiration and whimsy. For this I'm grateful.

[@raysstlyn6346]

The tuner on the headstock 😉

[@jimcrews8951]

The trials to video Banjo Medicine. Thanks for another great video. The mic sounds good. Your fretless playing is improving.

[@bravezoom]

This sounds wonderful and have a wonderful day.

[@lcoleman1961]

The sound quality is good. The banjo sounds great. There are no distracting background noises.

[@fredrikpettersson7559]

Just love! Thank you,

[@dougsneider722]

You’re videos are great. I always look forward to fretless Friday. Thanks!

[@FacelessonaThrone]

That hat is awesome

[@AABlann]

Sounded Great! You are definitely getting better on the fretless. You motivated me to play again. Thanks

[@y6u8i9]

Discovered you while I was sick last week 😁😁 You’re making me want to pick up my banjo again ❤

[@gwiyomikim5988]

Who wore it better? Phoebe or Toto?🤔 I do believe Phoebe is top of the pecking order in attire - and of course “Banjo”!🥰

[@MarkWYoung-ky4uc]

Love the tricorn hat Phoebe. It's you! It seems you have that Barred Rock hen's undevided attention.😂

[@gheffz]

You matched Toto completely! Well done showcasing that great hat someone sent you... and I love Fretless Fridays!!! It did sound great when you hit it!!! The mic worked fantastically... good "outdoor" mic!

[@connordimaggio5908]

NICE HAT!!! OMG!!

[@satanmessenger361]

It has a very good sound and very well played

[@daverow49]

Phoebe, love the slide ornaments on the fretless. the audio recording is great. Nice hat too. Keep at it! :)

[@JusticeConstantine]

Your wind cover on your mic is working great. Wonderful playing on your fretless banjo Phoebe.
