Back in Spring, Talise was coming through town to play with our pals at the Sunday Night Revue, and we reached out to film her playing her song Western Pine, talk about clawhammer banjo, and get a glimpse of that sweet sweet van life.
Talise is an exciting young musician in the Ontario old time scene, with a powerful voice, impressive clawhammer chops, and a deep respect for the roots of the music she plays. In this video, she's performing on her fretless gourd banjo built by Lowly Mountain Banjos - stick around at the end of the video to hear a bit about what it means to her to get in touch with the roots of the instrument.
Western Pine is a song about growing up and coming to terms with the woes of the world. Accompanied by the sweet resonant sound of her gourd banjo, Talise sings about the goings on beneath the Western Pine.
