Steve Martin

Steve Martin is a funny banjo player and also, it’s worth noting, a very good banjo player. Or at least he’s a lot better than just a guy who strums a few strings for novelty’s sake and leaves it at that. Martin’s banjo-playing goes back to the beginnings of his stand-up career, of course, but he made a big move earlier this year by releasing The Crow, an album of original banjo songs. Martin will perform some of those here.
