Do you play clawhammer banjo? The style in which you strum looks very similar to the claw hammer technique.

@@mysterymichaelman I’m doing grand. I hope you’re well yourself. I’m glad to see you’re still making folk music. I’ve messed with a lot of Appalachian/old time music now I’m trying to learn more bluegrass stuff. I’m having a baby and I’m married now.

@@Orourkebanjo That's a huge step up from the place you were in last time we talked! I was probably still a teenager, turning 22 in a few days. I actually do have a clawhammer song on this channel somewhere - drinking myself to death but I'll get out of this rut. All the love in the world, friend.

@@mysterymichaelman I drank a lot in my twenties, but for some reason I just grew out of it as soon as I turned 29. You will. You just need to find something you love more than drinking. It’s hard, but when it’s finally over it’s easy. Kind of a paradox like that. I wish you all the best. Happy birthday to you.

Interestingly, this reminds a lot irish folk. Maybe because back in the day a lot of Irish people migrated in the new world!
