Soon after releasing the critically-acclaimed banjo CD & DVD video set “The Banjo in America” by Bill Evans, something truly “wild and crazy happened.” Bill was given the ultimate distinction in the banjo universe: The 2022 Steve Martin Banjo Prize.
In celebration of this award, Bill and Tiki Parlour Recordings decided to release several videos from the set, shot by yours truly. Cheers to Bill Evans and all of the banjo enthusiasts worldwide who have embraced banjo music and this monumental project. Enjoy!
