Evie Ladin recently treated us to a solo banjo version of the tune “Trouble On My Mind” by Kentucky fiddler John Morgan Salyer while she was in the studio filming lessons for her Clawhammer Banjo course on Peghead Nation.
In addition to her teaching activities, Evie will be on the road this spring with her bandmates Keith Terry and Erik Pearson, playing dates in California, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia. Check out tour dates here.
