Banjo Hangout Newest 100 Songs

My first recorded foray into 2-finger picking. Learned finger-picking styles many years ago, but never quite got over the hump with any of them. Pushing myself this year to do so. Magpie is TOTW for March 30, 2018, and I know the tune pretty well in clawhammer style so I figured I would give a shot in TFTL. I'm still working on a lot aspects of finger-picking (even pinches, smooth/even tone, timing) but I thought this was good enough to post as a first attempt without totally embarassing myself. Banjo is tuned gEADE ("Sandy River Belle tuning"). I'm excited to actually be breaking my barrier and doing this. More to come, and even better stuff, I hope.

If I remember, the banjo is a Deering Golden Wreath.
