I made a little video performing Angeline the Baker for the Tune of the Month on a Facebook group I contribute to, called Clawhammer Rules. Angeline the Baker is an old time tune derived from a Stephen Foster song called Angelina Baker. I learned this tune early on in my clawhammer playing when I was teaching myself to play on an oil can banjo I cobbled together myself. I learned it from somebody’s hand-written banjo tab I found on the internet, but I know at this point I play it quite a bit differently than I did back then.

For those interested, I’m playing my Dogwood banjo in double-C tuning.
