Sacramento Banjo Band
We play, predominantly, 4-string banjos, with clear melody supported by strummed chords, the kind of music that gets your toes tapping and hands clapping.
Join the fun with Sacramento Banjo Band
The first and third Sunday of every month, from 1 PM - 3PM
at Straw Hat Pizza, 2429 Mather Field Road, Rancho Cordova, CA 95670
– Enjoy delicious food while enjoying lively banjo music –
Due to a Father’s Day gig, Sacramento Banjo Band will not be playing at Straw Hat on June 16.
Sorry to miss you, but we look forward to seeing you next time.
Our favorite tunes were composed around the turn of the 20th century - from the gay 90s through the 40s and a few from the 50s. Seniors are delighted to hear familiar tunes. Younger people are excited because this style of music is new to them. How often do you see 10-15 banjo players happily strumming away together? Our happy music will put a smile on your face, & might even make you want to get up and dance.
Our band has other instruments too: a tuba, gut bucket, washboard, clarinet, and fiddle, as well as a variety of vocalists. It all adds up to an historical music style that sounds new and refreshing. In today's media-saturated world we often encounter audiences who think they've heard it all...until we change their minds!
