In this video I discuss how to play the classic Appalachian dance piece "Cluck Old Hen" using two traditional banjo methods: overhand (clawhammer) and two-finger (thumb-lead).
I learned this piece from George R. Gibson of Knott County, Kentucky and it is one of the only pieces of music I've never heard him sing with. I generally don't sing with it either, hence I've chosen not to here. Lyrics to this song, for those interested in learning them, are widely available.
