A fun night and a Toronto tradition! In its twenty-sixth year, The Banjo Special brings together 4 of Canada’s top players to celebrate this wonderful instrument. Come and join Chris Coole, Arnie Naiman, Brian Taheny, Chris Quinn, and a myriad of guests as they present an evening of songs and tunes - with banjos at the heart of it all. There will be breakdowns and marches, picks and bare fingers, songs new and old, tubaphones and flatheads, Vegas and Gibsons. And it will all be handled with flair, fun, and big style. This is a unique chance to hear the diverse voice of both the five-string and tenor banjo, and how the instrument has woven its way into Bluegrass, Old-Time, Americana, and Traditional Irish music.
