I like it when they do " ta-ta-ta, na nananananaaaaaaaa, tadadan-itnonaaa", it's the best part!

[@boltofhawk]

They step out cool and leave smokin' every time!!!

[@sambsialia]

When Del and the boys are smiling, you know it was GOOD!

[@BrandtM84]

his banjo always sounds AMAZING

[@safetyman3]

His touch has a lot to do with it. I’m sure each banjo he owns is pretty amazing but the the technique, power and the way he attacks the strings all contribute to the tone he pulls from the instrument.

[@jmumz2028]

Still better than I remembered 🔥

[@caraperkins923]

Banjo makes me SMILE 😁

[@carlcathey7867]

Nothing this group can’t play and excel at. What a delight to sit back and appreciate your God given talent!

[@davemoy330]

[@arthurogle7581]

Loving Del's guitar runs. Obviously its a Martin (D18?) I'm a new Martin owner. Never bothered buying a Martin. Our Bg group banjo player owned a D35 I've been playing it 45 years. Had a neck reset last year. It's a 1968 D35 he bought in 1969. Creme de la creme of guitars. The holy grail nuther words.

[@taffbanjo]

Del McCoury Band - brilliant - Glad to see that Jason Carter is still with them. Don't know the bass player, though....

[@mwj5368]

Amazing banjo, and all with this! Man with the white hair, sorry don't know your name but amazing vocal range as I remember you singing very low harmony on another song I forgot the name of, the group of about a dozen musicians. You all have me following you!

[@banjopete]

mwj5368 ,Del mcCoury.
