Some mandolin greatness here! John Reischman and Jacob Jolliff played a killer duo show in Berkeley, CA, in June, a stop on their way to the California Bluegrass Association’s Father’s Day Festival in Grass Valley. Here, John talks about the global reach of his tune “Salt Spring” before he and Jacob take 16 strings to it in a fun, virtuosic performance. If you want to play this tune wherever you go around the world, you can learn it in John’s Melodic Mandolin Tunes course on Peghead Nation.
