Phoebe - you are such a delight to spend time with... We are so happy that you've been speaking with us lately - we feel like you are our friendly neighbor down the road who stops by to play tunes with us in the evening on the deck :) You are always welcome - especially if you're bringing along some sweet biscuits!

I laughed a bunch out loud when you reacted to the cooking spray....😊 I react the very same way. You are so special and full of life 😊😊😊😊

Every bit of that was fun and engaging. You're a natural on-camera personality, so try any darn thing that comes to mind and it'll be entertaining.

I’m 70, and my dad had a banjo custom made for me when I graduated high school. I spent many hours in the kitchen of the firehouse learning from the man that made the banjo. I haven’t picked it up for many years. This makes me want to get it out. I love your videos. They make me smile! ❤ 🪕

Pro-tip - You can use parchment paper instead of grease. Pro-advice - do not use wax paper.

I hope you feel as much happiness playing your music as I have found hearing you. You're awesome

Excellent playing; you are a wonderful teacher (& baker)! And hurray for NOT burning the house down. And time to wash some dishes, ha ha! Next baking video could be one of your one-of-a-kind birthday cakes.

Breath of Heaven, you undoubtedly are.

I can neither bake nor play the banjo. I am in awe.

Well done! Banjo is best learned by ear. There are no useful banjo tabs. Traditional music is shared through the air. Like a virus. ❤

nothing beats baking and banjos

Secrets and tips of the clawhammer REVEALED!!!

"Um, I know how to make ovens work" - Phoebe Sanders after discussing burning down the house. 😄 Love your vids!

Good job on the tutorial, the sound was fine with that mic. Cinnamon rolls a cookin and a good bakin song ...¡perfecto! (Dog barking at the end and a cup of tea...Phoebe the baker ain't burnin the house down!)

The editing here is really fun, I really like stuff like those jump cuts while getting the cinnamon rolls out!!

I still miss the chicken

Phoebe you are more than qualified to play those lovely pieces. Don't worry about not being able to read tabs. I learned to read drum notation a very long time ago. I have never had to use it. Great job on the baking too!

The instant you said Angeline the baker, the tune was already playing in my head. Phoebe the baker+ banjo; I think you're on to something. Good food and good music always draws a crowd.

This is sick x Wish other youtubers would have banjo playing and tutorials in the middle of their videos haha

FWIW, I'd love more tutorial content. At least one other KZfaq banjoist I follow posts song videos and then usually will post a tutorial a few days later. You already do an amazing job with the performance videos and I think you'd do a great job on the tutorial videos as well. If they also involve baking, well that's just a bonus. As for me, I always banjo when I grill. :)

tabs are for those who can not naturally find the melody's. I love watching your fingers , as I learn by sight and sound. Thank you.

It was a fun video. I'm happy to see how you do some technics here and there. I actually got the idea to learn playing a banjo earlier this year, and your videos played a big part in it. Somehow I came to the wise decision to learn clawhammer, in the middle of Europe where almost nobody seen a banjo up close, and I'm pretty sure that nobody seen how to play clawhammer. I'm still in the very beginning because it's really hard to figure it out how to do it just by watching online videos, but getting there sooner or later :) I hope.

I love when you make fun videos like this. Great job!

"I should probably learn to read tabs." As someone who reads tabs, we should all learn to play by ear. :) I read tabs fine and can read sheet music (at least on other instruments), but learning by ear remains a mystery to me and I think that holds me back in terms of the musicality of what I play. Don't get me wrong, tabs are a tremendous resource for teaching and learning, but the best traditional musicians usually learned by ear and later learned to put that into tab form for others.

GREAT FUN! Your quirky, sweet sense of humor comes through well.

You were ripping on that there banjo hard towards the end! Definitely do more of these videos- it was too much fun. Save me a cinnamon roll!

What a coincidence, I saw this video on my home page just after finishing rolling and slicing a batch of cinnamon rolls! Love the banjo playing with cinnamon roll baking, what a combo. You have a fan in Washington!

The banjo is to me such a 'happy' instrument... no, maybe happy isn't the right word. 'Content', yep, that's it. It just is. Nice.

Too funny. That is some phenomenal Bajo playing! Well done! We have the exact same gas stove! Don't forget to turn the exhaust fan on when using the oven!

You make me laugh Pheobe. Just getting the cinnamon roles out and on the sheet had me laughing. I like this entire video concept and I think you should put together a tune called "Don't Burn the House Down" as a tribute to the journey of making the YT videos. I'd love to see in future videos just little snippets here and there of how you got into playing music, how you learn a song or add to it, leading up to where you are now with the YT stuff. I never tried anything musical until around age 55 when I started playing the fiddle. I wanted to learn by ear, but my fiddle instructor had me learn reading music so now I'm a bit dependent on having sheet music to learn by. I too can't do tabular stuff. Well I need to go back to fiddling with Angeline. Don't forget to do the dishes. Thanks for making me laugh.

Here in the South we whack the tube on the counter! Possibly to help hide the shame of not making them homemade.

This was a very fun video, and I would like to see more in the future. You seem like a lot of fun to spend time with and I liked the banjo tutorial as well.♥️🎶

Superb content. Please produce more. I love how you shifted to the higher frets. I'm trying to learn some music theory as I learn to play tunes. I think shifting up the neck like that is called a chord inversion. The hammer on/pull off is cramming two notes into one quarter note's space, thus making them eighth notes (I think..) You and Margo MacSweeney are the only banjo players I watch full screen on my phone so that I can try to learn how you are playing. More, please!

I have found that when cooking, it is ok to trust your instincts, but baking is more like chemistry. I also like hearing your thought process on the banjo. it makes more sense to the guy who cant even spell 'theory' without spellcheck. Trust your instincts there as well.

Awesome and fun video to watch 😁😁👍👍👍👍

Thank you, that was great! It was very helpful to see it slowed down, and see the fretboard. I am used to learning from watching people just break down how they play a song, so I don't miss the tab :) You explained everything very well. This is a fun tuning! I am mainly a guitar player, but my Dad gave me his old banjo a few years ago, and I have only ever played it in G. So it was great to break out of that box! I would definitely enjoy more videos like this. I'm glad that the baking went well :)

Another well-done video. I liked watching your tutorial part with you mentioned what you were aimed at doing. Great stuff.

Great fun. The snowball mic works fine. also Love the teeshirt!!! I had to google Moonpie. Looks like they do something similar over here in the U.K.called Wagon Wheels. Banjo should be fun and that comes across in everything you do.

Loved it thought it was great. Please do more

Thanks for this, and yes, more tutorial stuff would be great!

I love this! If you do more instructional videos, I'd love some break down of what you're doing with your right hand for basic clawhammer technique:)

Yes more baking please

That was american baking! 😅 At least you have more time to play banjo... 😂 👍 I love your video and hear you play the banjo!!!

quite helpful . . . the explanations were clear and easy to understand -- harder to do, I'm sure . . . keep it up! and send a cinnamon roll . . . and sincere wishes for the safety of those dealing with the storm . . .

Nice video concept. I don't have a banjo but now I want to get one, it was fun seeing you break down the technique.

I PRAY YOU FIND A MAN THAT COOKS!..BAHAHA..(we love ya anyhoo Phoebes!)

Thanks for the lesson. For some reason I always put Angeline the Baker on the backburner and then forget about it.

Love it , keep doing what you do.

Love your Chicken Boy pin. 🤙🏼

Isso que eu chamo de não perder tempo! 😊

I can pick the melody pretty well but I have difficulty with the right hand playing clawhammer banjo. I always zero in on the player's right hand to try and duplicate. I am a beginner for sure. You helped me a lot in this video! I love your videos....

Your pup wanted an encore after hearing you start to absolutely shred at the end🤟😎🤟

The “trill” You demonstrate is called a triplet.

Love the the video please make more like this, plus you are the bomb on the banjo 😊

Nice upper fretboard work! ❤

Great to hear and see you play the banjo! I am trying too,thanks for the lesson😊

As someone who crochets all kinds of stuff but can't read a pattern, I sympathize on not reading tab LOL!

I am going to be buying the Recording King Old time banjo-madison open back OT26 .. I will be learning mostly to entertain myself cause I love the banjo sound.. Going to try all different types of strings, to see what suits my ear..

Great Banjo slinging as always and great rolls too

Your aunt Vickie introduced me to your channel-so glad she did! Yeah, canned cinnamon rolls are tricky creatures… …but you didn’t burn the house down! 😅

Upvoting before watching the video just for the moon pie shirt 😂 Ok edit: watched it, banjo technique tutorial starts at 5:06. Actual song around 14:08 . Cooking definitely not a primary focus here 😂. I think the tutorial might be a little difficult for just any beginner to follow but not bad idea - maybe separate the playing of the song into separate video.

Have you thought of making a patreon? Or like, making a cash app or something? I’d love to support more of this. I always love seeing your videos, and it helps drives me to practice my banjo playing.

I think you are a wonderful person!

Where might one find a fretless banjo like yours? I love the soft sound.

Amazing playing. I’d love to say I play by ear and can pickup what someone plays but that simply isn’t the case nor will it ever be. Would love to see tabs once you learn to read and write them! Would recommend MuseScore for writing songs.

I have the exact same plate! Depression glass 🎉

The way I learned to play guitar was by listening to songs and then finding the notes on my guitar by trial and error. I could never teach guitar by this method. You either have this ability or you don't. Also I would probably bake rolls about the same as you did.

I'll try learning off you on this one, I think you should totally do more tutorials, even if they aren't perfect, because you have a unique repertoire that can at least be learned by people like me who are visual and audio learners for banjo :) I love this one

I’d like to see a review on the banjo you’re playing; how much does it cost; the pros/cons etc. It has a really nice sound to it. I’m a total beginner and got a recording king banjo and I love it; but the top thumb string makes an annoying buzzing sound; I don’t know how to make it go away. A troubleshooting banjo buzz video would be great too :)

❤

❤me some cinnamon roll POP can footage and you'll get a better mic for sure: This video sounded and looked just fine! The Austin tea pot nesting in the tea cup is brill!

i liked it. I barely know the fret board in standard tuning on guitar. Having to know different tunings and know where everything is for each tuning would break my brain. We have some drizzle up here in San Jose.

Mad cool..🪕🪕🪕

more of this!

Phoebe, friends don’t let friends learn tab! Continue to learn and play by ear.

WOAAAA IT ESPLIDED!?!?!?!

Keep up the verity

It’s too advanced for me to follow but I’m a fan of your playing.

Nice! Angeline the Baker is one of my favorite songs. Oh, BTW, the word you were searching for is "triplets", but trills works just fine ;-)

Thanks!

Thanks! Phoebe 🎶🪕🍩🫖 I thank your audio is fine.

Very cool stuff. Q for ya - wondering what parts of learning clawhammer came easy or difficultly to you? I'm still missing single notes sometimes or getting muffled strikes sometimes.

Always better to cook in a glass casserole dish. Take a stick of butter, unwrap one end and "butter" the dish. Olive oil is better for veggies and meats. Breads do best with butter or sunflower seed oil.

would like to see incorporations of different things with a banjo that would be awesome!

How about Sandy River Belle and Biscuits? Sourwood Mountain and Muffins?

Make something in that crockpot and then have a marathon jam for 4 to 8 hours while it's cooking (jk) 🙂

Nice How Lucky Unique moment spend in the kitchen with a very talented young player. Well Done Thanks Take Care ENJOY Ps Note: Culinary skills like music get better with practice 😉 ha! ha ! ha ! No don't stop your videos are always interesting Pss: Suggestion how about composing a tune Like 🎶 I DIDN'T BURN THE HOUSE DOWN🎶 by Phoebe In case it already exists or 🎶 PHOEBE PLEASE DON'T BURN THE HOUSE DOWN 🎶 or PLEASE BURN THE HOUSE DOWN 🎶ect Compose a banjo.tune

I have a feeling your parents may have told you not to burn the house down.... Just a hunch.

Sometimes I thoutght that Phoebe is silent. But she was reading to talk, and talk and talk =)

Are you plucking notes on the down strum with your index finger? Do you ever pluck on the up strum? I started learning clawhammer today, the rhythm of it is fun! Thanks for sharing!

Popeye is awesome!

Of course you have cinnamon on your fingers. How the heck else you supposed to play?

I see it: either make a new channel, rename this one, or create a series called "Baking and Banjos"!

Hat? Where did you score that?

So does Banjo + baker = banker ?? I guess if you get enough likes and $$ off this video, it does. 😄 Maybe enough to get that microphone. Very entertaining video.👍

Oh, I was hearing your name wrong.. It is Phoebe as in fee-be. Please tell me I am right.

If You play as fast as You did toward the end, the dancers will always come back for more. Just give them a waltz to cool off.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🪕🪕🪕🪕🪕🪕🪕🪕🪕🪕

Yes, I can hear the rain as background noise---must be due to climate change/global warming?🙄** ** Sorry, just could NOT resist tossing that into my comment. If I comment again I will attempt to make more of an effort not to get political here.😶 PS Definitely like the Banjo playing🙂

Would love to see you try some B. Dylan Hollis recipes while playing. 🪕 There both Simple yet exciting!
