I'm newbie uker, working my way through "Ukulele For Dummies." I got to page 87, "Wayfaring Stranger," immediately disliked the strumming pattern the book provided and came up with my own. But the more I played it, the more I thought it really called for bluegrass. Then, I found your cover of the tune and this instructional video. I might be getting way ahead of my proficiency level but I love a challenge. And this will keep me interested, not the strumming pattern in my book. Plus, playing clawhammer style makes the song sound much more upbeat. I can't thank you enough. You explain and demonstrate the technique very well.
Thanks, wonderful teaching
Really excellent teaching.
Great pace, great stages of the strum,
and perfect illustration.
Twenty stars.
Dude this was the most helpful video I found so far

I've heard the term 'frailing' ... is that the same as the clawhammer technique?
Yes it is!
