Narrated by banjo master Steve Martin, this lively documentary covers the full range of music that “America’s instrument” has helped to shape. Bringing together contemporary players—Earl Scruggs, Pete Seeger, Bela Fleck, the Carolina Chocolate Drops, and Abigail Washburn, among many others—with folklorists, historians, instrument makers, and passionate amateurs, it tells the story of the banjo in all its richness and diversity.
