Your Melodies

Basically a song about a failed friendship, which as we all know is best done with several banjo tracks!

Needs more banjo.
Ah ha ha ha. Seriously, this is really nice. I like the way it sort of trails off, awkwardly plinking into the false endings (1:20 & 2:50) -- maybe it's the sound of the rain you made? -- and then comes sweetly back (and then the real ending is just -- zoop! done!).
Are you familiar with Supperbell Roundup? He's this banjo-playing, Greyhound-traveling, busking kid -- his album is pretty neat. You might like it.

"Learn to love your melody".
That is really quite lovely.

Always enjoy your banjo playing, and this one has a pretty melody. Something about your vocal delivery this time around reminds me of M Ward. Nice. There is a nice effortless feel to what you do. As micayetoca said, keep 'em coming!

I'm sorry but I have to laugh with the ending, you're such a teaser with two falsies, even though I read karlos' comment, I was still kinda waiting for more when the end came.
You really do makes things very sweet, smooth and seemingly effortless. Awesome banjo picking man.

I had this song stuck in my head all weekend, and I couldn't figure out where the hell I picked it up. It finally clicked -- catchy tune!
