Just glad to see Jens Kruger there.
I've come to absolutely adore The Kruger Brothers! If you've never seen their weekly livestream shows on YouTube/Facebook, you are truly missing out. They are ALL archived there. Check them out...but yeah, Jens is, to me, the tops!
With the resent passing of Sonny Osborne, I began to think about all the Grade A banjoists, both living and dead. I have come up with a list of my favorites and am sure I am missing some other great ones. I have purposefully left out Dave Guard and John Stewart. They were both great banjo players and had their own style that worked for the KT, but I don’t believe they were in the same league with my list below Can you add to this list:
Keith Arnesen – US Navy Country Current
Doug Dillard
Earl Scruggs
Pete Wernick
Jens Kruger
Roy Clark
Buck Trent
Tony Trishka
Bela Fleck
Alison Brown
Kristin Benson
J.D. Crowe
Sonny Osborne
Eric Weissberg
George Grove
