Someone sent me this video a while back and it blew me away:

9-Year-Old Plays Banjo on David Letterman Show - Sleepy Man Banjo Boys - YouTube

I only learned today that they're from just up the road from me (Lebanon Township) right here in Hunterdon County I'd love to catch them sometime but it looks like they're busy touring all over the place these days. I wonder if they've ever played/will play Albert Music Hall in Waretown?

These kids are great. I've seen them on multiple occasions. They usually participate in the annual Fireback Banjo and Fiddle Contest held at Shippen Manor in Oxford.

Here is their website:

What the crap, these kids are great. I feel like I should go set a fire in my backyard and toss my guitars, banjo, mandolin and harmonicas all in.

They need to turn 21 because I need to buy them all a lot of whiskey.

Saw them live and up close and personal at the C.F. Martin owners club event in Nazareth, PA last August. Nice kids, incredibly talented.
