That 5/28 show was inspired. All the way through. Got it in the car now.

Cool; I knew there's an active Czech bluegrass scene, but those guys are the first Irish 'grassers I've come across.
Thanks, Paul.

Interesting use of a plectrum tenor banjo in that context too.

A buddy of mine at work here shared this fun take on China > Rider with mandolin and guitar yesterday.

Just found out about the Bazantar.

Thanks, Greg; that was nice.

Does anyone recognize the logo on the guitar?

And thanks, Paul; gotta love a one-off instrument that actually works!

Hard to tell, you don’t get a good direct view in the video, but I would guess it might be a Matao.

Bill, tgo

Too big for a Whitebook logo too, which was my first guess, and I don't recall seeing a Whitebook OM type anyway. I posted a question in the comment section of their video.

I had never heard of Matao, but upon investigation, I do believe you're right, Bill.

Me neither, but... well... he is The Guitar One, after all.    Can't get too many past this crowd.

I love this band from Sweden ! I love their sound  and feel,
 This performance is a sublime example of what this band is capable of :Female vocals; Heike Langhans (Official)
 Male Vocals and song writer Poet, Anders Jacobson. Here we have in my estimation of what is a  continuing representation of the  Beauty & Beast ; Male / Female reciprocal vocal style, that was originally conceptualized by the original  Theatre of Tragedy from Norway,
My newly developed form of lyric writing is influenced by this reciprocal style. I find this performance to be truly beautiful . Singer Heike Langhans is one of the most sincere performers in this genre that I have heard .

Been listening to a lot of reggae over the course of the pandemic. Burning Spear has always been one of my favorite artists yet somehow I never heard the song he wrote in honor of Jerry Garcia until today.  Play Jerry play, play your guitar...

For some reason, this one has been bouncing around head of late:
