Description
Rex McGee is a talented multi-instrumentalist who seems to have one foot firmly planted in tradition and one foot firmly planted in innovation. His ability to play Celtic music on the 5 string banjo, his innovative 24 Creations for Solo Banjo project, his educational fiddle playing website, his efforts in music education and much more make him a fascinating person to talk to. In this second half of our interview, Rex talks about his musical friends- including Bill Keith and Ryan Cavanaugh, his band Kripplekrunk, his 24 Creations for Solo Banjo project, and much more.
