Hi, all. I just discovered this group, so I thought I would link you all to a video of me clawing out a pop song, that I'm sure you are all familiar with. Hope you like.

	BanjoNikopolis says: 11/13/2012 8:06:59 AM Thank you! I have been playing the banjo for just over a year. I do Scruggs picking too, but there is something so captivating about Clawhammer, so I write/compose/transcribe more in that style. Any tips, pointers, advice, lessons would be much appreciated! Thanks, Nick
