Tony got together with Noam Pikelny recently to talk banjo and discuss Noam's new (and debut) solo banjo album called "Universal Favorite." In Part 1 Noam kicks it off by performing "Waveland" which Tony has written tablature for (available in "Additional Study Materials" section). You can find it in the +Music section of the Learn area or just click hereMore parts will be added soon so stay tuned! 

Parts 10 & 11 includes discussion on improvising as well as a really funny little aside where Tony and Noam decide to call Alan Munde on a whim to answer a long held question: why was the song "Reuben" not included on his album Banjo Sandwich? 

Update: we just added the final two parts of this great interview, check it out!

Tony did an interview with the amazing Ryan Cavanaugh recently when he was in out in Brooklyn, NY. This was a pretty long interview that covers many topics and includes several performances and demonstrations. As someone Béla Fleck once called "one of the best technical players ever," you can imagine these two had a lot to talk about.

Update: All parts are now available! You can find in the +Music section in the Learn area or just click here!
