Arnie Naiman & Chris Coole – 5 Strings Attached With No Backing

Here’s another great find from a local Value Village store – a great place to find CD’s from local and regional Canadian artists:

5 Strings Attached With No Backing is a collection of both traditional and original tunes capturing the beautiful sound of the old time clawhammer and finger-picking style of the 5 string banjo with guitar accompaniment. Unique versions of old time songs are included along with a variety of instrumentals, which makes for great listening from start to finish. Banjo tunings and keys are documented for the banjo playing enthusiast.
