“When you’re making music, it’s always nice to get into a little trouble. Push it a little bit. I play bad notes all the time, it sounds just fine to me.”

The dramatic conclusion of the five part series all about Strings! Andrew & Polly talk to Banjo Man Eddie Berman, about Polly’s trip to Live Oak Fiddle Camp in HallotsvilleTX and her new fiddle pal Katy Buckbee (and her band!) Plus take a sneak peak inside one of their new songs, “Expo Line…” We’ve strung it out long enough!



Other fun stuff we talked about:
- Polly first started playing violin when she was 3. (She started with a kleenex box and a chopstick.)
- Suzuki Method & playing by ear
- Frailing /Clawhammer banjo finger-picking
- How to Make a Banjo
- fiddle camp teacher Stuart Duncan
- “fiddling around”
