Nora playing a medley at the Lexington Old-Time Gathering at the Arts Place, Lexington KY. Sat. Feb. 10 2018 - Nora learned Rye Whiskey from visiting Lee Sexton in Cornettsville, KY.
goddamn you already got the moody voice of an overworked old woman in the Appalachia, and i mean that in the best way. banjo 100% on point too. this is great
she plays approximately like I imagine myself playing... I have been practicing for almost 60 years... no luck... but a lot of joy.... I will keep trying.. mebbe... if the neighbors let me grow up.. I can learn how from a pro
The tune is very similar to Married Girl - Single Girl. Nora, you have obviously worked very hard to develop your skill and knowledge. Pete, Clarence, Doc, Earl and all the other greats that have come before you are smiling down and tapping their feet! Best wishes for your continued success! 👏👏👏👏 New Subscriber.
Young Lady, you are a credit to your culture, to music, and to superb Banjo playing & singing. Thank you for this! I play a Gibson Mastertone 4-string, about a hundred or so years old (the banjo, not me, yet).
I am older than you and yet I still look up to your playing! PHENOMENAL!! Even though the video is black and white your playing restores it’s vibrance.
You prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know a method to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Jaxtyn Crew thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
These videos are just so lovely - they warm my heart! Is there somewhere one can find out when & where Little Nora will be performing in public. I'm going to be in new York for a few days in April, and I sure would love to see her perform while I'm there.
Little Nora Amazing! I’m going to try to get there. I’ve been a banjo player for 5 decades now, and I’m so enormously impressed with Nora’s talent, skills, dedication and obvious hard work - and also with her superb singing. I’m finding that singing banjo players are becoming more and more rare these days - she gives me hope for the future of what I hope will not become a lost art. Is there some way we can communicate other than through comments on a video (I’m assuming you are Nora’s parent).
I can never decide if Nora Brown's playing makes me want to quit playing banjo or try harder.
Try harder bro you can achieve anything you want. Just have to want it bad enough to train for it
Some people have talent and drive some do not. Even if you do not have talent drive is good enough for most people.
Dude right there with you
makes me want to try harder, then i try and want to quit
also nora plays since she s been super young like 5 or 6

What a jewel of a voice and two-fingered style!
I wasn't planning on leaving a comment but then I saw there's only 48 comments and now I gotta say DANG GIRL. Never stop.
Makes you believe in reincarnation. Amazing. This little girl is great!
Love it! Keep the tradition of music alive. She is a great!
She’s so good this young musician. I’m enamoured by this music.
Thanks algorithm.
wow! brilliant. thank you Nora!
I never paid much attention or cared much for these old banjo songs before hearing your versions. I love them!
Yes Nora! Awesome. Keep playing, and listen to as much Ola Belle Reed as you can
She plays more like Lee's uncle Morgan. Beautiful job! Keep the music alive! :-)

It is a question of simply vibrations
Hi Nora. Can you let us know what tuning you are playing in? Thanks
Very nice job and shout out to Clif. I saw you join in the live chat today. You were late though lol.

Little Nora What time is the brunch set going to happen? (I want to make sure I am there for the set, and not just the food!)
I think hedy west was reincarnated, absolutely beautiful
Banjo and mandoline are saoul
Every instuments i means
Every four cordes instrument is saoul
Pretty sure they call this a Prodigy or a phenome.
I had a feeling she drew at least some inspiration from clifton hicks rendtions
