    This is so refreshing. When RUclips was innocent and real.

      I think this just proves that part of it still is especially with musicians. You just have to know where to look

    that propellor hat is literally the coolest

    This one's so cute! Of course the propeller hat, but the dog sniffing the camera, and a cameo by your Dad. But best of all is that you arranged a tune from the Wizard of Oz! How wackily cool. Thanks, Phoebe!

    The hat is like a Jughead Jones crown hat combined with a propeller beanie!

    Being a somewhat older person I sang the loud parts "out loud". I know what you were singing silently! Having grown up watching the " Wizard of OZ" and being from Kansas this is a special song for me! Thank You!

    I notice how you can play without looking at the neck. I’m impressed by that. You are playing with feeling. I’m an old guy who plays guitar. I love banjo and thanks for being there with that beautiful smile

    Hi Phoebe. Love your banjo playing. When I was a kid I had a Beanie and Cecil propeller beanie that you could wind up and when you pulled the chinstrap the propeller would fly off (I'm an old geezer). Thank you for your music. Also, I am a fan of the Wizard of Oz {books and movie). I remember when they used to play the movie once a year like a holiday.

    Good one Phoebe, I got a hat like yours we call him jughead hats. I made it years ago from old cowboy hat. I do not have a propeller on it. I'll take a picture of it sometime and send it to you.

    • @carlericvonkleistiii2188

      Also known as crown hats. Originally made from old fedoras. Made famous by the character Jughead from the Archie comics.

    Tell your dad he needs to be spinning your propeller with the leaf blower rather than just wandering around photobombing! Such things are what dads are for. 🙂
    I'd be curious to know what criteria you use to decide which banjo to play (larger pot vs smaller). Is it based on the song or something else? I'm in the process of deciding on a beginner banjo and am leaning toward one with a larger pot (12" vs 11").
