“VERY well done, lad! Energetically and faultlessly performed with self-assured sincerity, verve, and complete confidence !! (Not to mention that most uncommon quality to be found in a banjo player - a smile on his face while playing it).”

A truly unique and beautiful music video is coming to you today. I am truly honored to partner with Julienne Ellen, an incredibly talented young folk musician, who created a heart breaking version of the amazing Civil War song “Two Soldiers” exclusively for this channel.
The story is told through real period images, and illustrations. Pictured below is a United States Soldier with his family, 1861-1865
