I’m headed to Florence, Alabama, today for a performance with poet Hank Lazer. We’ll perform sections from his newest book, As We Vanish from Public View and a variety of other material with banjo and electronics.
I’ll also play a few tunes on acoustic banjo using Wilbur, my Dobson-style banjo. Wilbur was my very first banjo–it was a gift from Margaret Darby. She had kept it for many years in the attic or garage of her beautiful Victorian home in Florence. I named the banjo after her late husband, Wilbur, who she claimed was a friendly ghost in the house.
