1/ If you love #FolkMusic - #CelticMusic or #Bluegrass you’re going to love Nordic Folk - if you’re not already in to it… #Scandinavian fiddle is awesome. This tune had my feet tapping. To paraphrase an old saying: Great fiddle music needs to win your ears, your heart, and your feet… #fiddle #FiddleTunes 🧵

Tenor banjos are great. You can see mine in this video - it's a 1925 Gibson TB-JR. Banjos are a bit in-your-face, though, and don't suit all kinds of music. A guitar is a more flexible instrument, and can contribute to an arrangement in so many different ways!
