I just love 'cause she smiles all the the time.

[@phspalace1021]

You play Banjo excellent.

[@OlaviIkonen]

I love this tune, it's one of my favorites. I play it with guitar. I've also made couple of arrangements of it. One for beginners and one to advanced players (played like button accordion). It suits really nice to banjo. Play more Finnish folk tunes please!

[@jarousskyphilippe5831]

I love this sound.

[@Bisbonian]

Just Amazing, Cathy. I am really enjoying your playing...especially the European tunes. Your instructional videos are really wonderful, too. Not the same old stuff. Keep it up; us wanna-be bnjo players are loving it :)

[@raintheory3390]

0:18 sounds very Arabic to me, certainly more than the "Arabic Style" clip I hope you are doing great

[@CurtisThorpe]

Mmm, seems your 5hh string is a 'g' and not an 'e' which you have listed in the description. Incredible playing! Thanks.

[@newdoom3]

Bravo Cathy!! I hear a bit of a brush sound at some points. Is that your right hand hitting the banjo head? Nice effect. Is that intentional? I would assume so, as you have wonderful control over your right hand.

[@stephenbarkley3189]

wow

[@Janusmannen]

Awesome!!! Encore!!! :-)

[@KajaaniRockCity]

Thats so cool man :)

[@gabrieldavid3158]

strings are actually gDFAD, capo on the second fret, what she posted is not what she's doing

[@gabrieldavid3158]

Can anyone find a copy of the tab for this song? The ones on Banjomeetsworld doesn't work anymore

[@raintheory3390]

Is it really eEGBE?! sounds like gEGBE to my ears...

[@g0dz11]

Tab isn't working for me for some reason. Has it been removed after so long? Love this though :)

I love this Cathy. I've learnt this tune from your tab and modified it a bit. I also bought a OT-800 on the strength of your videos but took it back because I couldn't get along with it. Also, the 1st string nut slot was much too close to the edge of the fingerboard. How's yours? I may get the Short Scale version of this banjo when it comes out here in the UK later on this year. Anyway - I love your videos and your very different approach. Many Thanks Les
