About Me

Richard Galluzzi, amateur clawhammer banjoist, and enthusiast of fine acoustic music in general. I have been playing banjo for a number of years and perform with a folk band called Latitude as well as playing old-time music informally and playing at the local folk clubs / house parties etc.I play traditional old-time tunes and songs, but also really enjoy adapting the clawhammer style to original songs and music from other genres and cultures. I created this page so i could post music and meet others with the same interests and ideas.Please say hello and let me know if you like my tunes !
