Mirek Patek (CZ) has been a regular attender at the annual Johnny Keenan Banjo Festival in Longford, where he has been easily noticeable with his white-topped cap and his finger-picked tenor banjo.

For more details and examples of Mirek's finger-picking technique on tenor banjo, consult his website or his YouTube channel. How did he come to develop it? The answer is here.
