Banjo news

Michael J. Miles, the supreme clawhammer banjo virtuoso who visited Ireland all too briefly earlier this year, sends word that he not only has a completely refurbished website - he's offering his CDs at $10.00 each, up to and including 15 December 2011. These include some of the finest achievements of banjo music, so we recommend investigating. Read Michael's latest e-newsletter.
