Kyle's Banjo Club

Welcome to Kyle's Banjo Club! On the first of every month, I will email you ten tunes in tablature along with a brief introduction for the month's selections. Most of my banjo tabs are for 5-string banjo in G, C, no bass, G minor, or sawmill tuning. I'll be sure to include pieces in a variety of skill levels each month. Every tune is presented in clear, easy-to-read tablature. All of the current month's titles are listed below.

As a banjo club member, you'll get exclusive arrangements and transcriptions available nowhere else. Many pieces are from the early American banjo books from the 19th century. I also have quite a few traditional folk tunes that I've arranged for 5-string banjo. You can get past issues from the club at this link: kylegrayyoung.gumroad.com/l/kbc-complete

This club is free and open to everyone. If you would like access to the mp3s of the tunes, you can join the audio tier with a donation of $2 or more. The VIP Lounge is available for $5 or more per month. VIP members get access to bonus tunes each month. These are usually more challenging and longer pieces. Genres include blues, jazz, ragtime, classic banjo and more!

If you need any help with any of the tunes, have feedback, or any requests, please do not hesitate to contact me. Please visit bio.link/kyle for all of my socials and contact info. 

Enjoy!
