ABOUT ME:
My name is David, and I play the mandolin. I've played with multiple award-winning bluegrass bands across the world including Missy Raines, Mile Twelve, Cup O’Joe, and The Foreign Landers, and I curate the weekly mandolin video series #mandolinmondays hosted by the Mandolin Cafe. But most of all, I love sharing my love of the mandolin with others. I run an online mandolin learning community on Patreon, and I also make videos to share my thoughts, ideas, and general mandolin enthusiasm with other mando aficionados.

Are mandolinists just the nicest (and most talented) people in music? This video put a HUGE smile on my face after a long week. Hope all is well David! Chris

NO. Real men use guitars
Wyatt is so talented and well spoken beyond his years! Watching his progress on the Internet has been inspiring! Motivates me to stop making excuses for why I don't play/ learn enough.
💙
Like Sierra said, David, YOU rock! Thanks for your huge contribution to the mandolin community!
He does!
What Wyatt has got in a handful of years I’ve not been able pick up in decades, it’s enough to (almost) make me hand up my mandolin and settle for just listening to great music. I just never figured out how some people play with that level of fluidity and ease, that mandolin really sings.
Keep going. Get to slowing things down on RUclips and also join some online group classes.
@@WyattEllisslowing down is definitely needed.
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video! You all three are a huge inspiration drive for me in my playing!
This young man is amazing. David is my go to person for all things Mando.
🤜🏼🤛🏼
Loved everything about this David. Proud to be one of your Patreons.
David, a great video! Great to get tips from Wyatt, and backstage with Sierra (one of my bluegrass heroes). Thanks for taking us along on your trip.
Thank you, thank you David! Your videos are always so much fun and so inspiring! (loved the show at the Bijou in Knoxville, Wyatt & Sierra! 🙂)
What an outstanding interview and video!! And great tips as well, Wyatt! Thank you and David, and Ms Sierra as well! 👏👏

Great video, thanks David! It was really nice to get to know Wyatt a little better and he's such a nice young dude. I hope you got a lot out of your lesson. ;)
David your mandolin has excellent tone. Don’t never sell that mandolin. It’s got that cutting tone. Who’s the maker.
Apitius. Incredible mandos by an incredible luthier! And David makes it sound beyond incredible.
Great video. It's amazing how much young people are pushing the boundaries of musical performance.
The Peace Center is a great venue. It's named after Mr. Bony Peace, publisher of the Greenville News in the early 1900s.
FWIW, the building in the background at 6:30 is part of the Governor's School for the Arts.
I absolutely loved this video. Thanks so much for being who you are David and for sharing your love of this incredible instrument with the rest of us!
💯
Great advice, fascinating interview and a wonderful little duet. So many great musicians cite playing along to recordings, and I wonder if that’s self selecting because my impression is it takes so much work and ability to be able to do that- though these days with RUclips looping and slowing tools it’s a bit more accessible!
Great set of tips from all of you! Currently self-learning mandolin, but I teach bowed strings and 'uke, and share these tips to my students regularly!
Thanks for the video. The interview was great as was the playing.
Wyatt moves his right arm mainly from his wrist, David from his elbow. I’m sure personal style/preference determine which joint is used to move the pick. Please share your thoughts on this.
So Forked is a two syllable word? Never knew.
Saw Wyatt on Zoom for Monroe Mandolin Camp in 2020. Such incredible improvement!
That’s how I learned. All online 🤜🏼🤛🏼
David, thanks for the interesting video. Very helpful. Wyatt is so mature for his age. I liked the chords you were using for Forked Deer. Do you have a video for that?
I want to get faster better on the mandolin.
Excellent video!
Thank you for the video. I was at the Wyatt / Sierra concert in Greenville. They were both awesome.

@@WyattEllis Someday I will get to tell my grandchildren that I saw you playing with Sierra Hull in a small venue in Greenville when you were 15. I will always remember this particular event as one of my favorite.
@@FondaHancock-l8gthank you so much.
It would really nice to find out what mic set up they have on their mandolin in the jam with Sierra.
LR Baggs Radius pickups for sure. It' highly likely that the condenser mic clip ons are DPA 4099. I use the Radius with an AT 350 mic.
Amazing Great playing .Love that👏
🤘
🤜🏼🤛🏼
Did you get scared standing on the bridge at the first of the movie and do you think if you had a accident and dropped the instrument do you think it would break it inside the case.
Wow!! I went to this show as a new sierra fan. They both blew me away. I’m trying to learn mandolin. Do you know any place to get lessons in the upstate?
Start online!!
Thanks! Great stuff. A general question you might have already covered somewhere: All of these top notch players have a lot of speed and clean picking. Do they set their mandos up with low action or what do you recommend?
Mine is low but not too low
@@WyattEllis Thank you! Appreciate the direct reply!
Nah. No thanks. I’m just gonna keep buying mandolin accessories and $35 picks. 😂
🤣👏
😅
35 $ picks?.......happy sales staff, I bought 100 picks for 14$
👏🫵🎵
❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

" awesome", 'rock" seems a staple of the rhetoric with these fellas
It’s not a coincidence 🤘🎸
