Banjo Licks has to be one of the most intuitive and perfect ways to improve and sharpen up banjo playing skills.

Dennis W.

BL is awesome! I like learning licks in the context of a tune. That helps me internalize the lick more as a piece of vocabulary that I can use when I'm at the local jam. It's a kick-butt idea and website! 

Mike F.

The real deal maker is the simplicity of the site. NO circuitous hunting around!!! Great Stuff.

Bill K.

Really enjoying Banjo Licks and I look forward to each day’s new lick! Keep up the good work.

Fred C.

Every day I look forward to what you come up with :-).

Zbynek R.

The content is so clean and focused on learning by ear/watching as opposed to only relying on tab.
