It's kinda hard for me to explain why I do the songs I do. I do a large # of the songs just cause they are fun. That's a large reason I play the banjo. It has a sound that reminds me of laughter. Other songs tell stories that I think should be remembered. Some I do cause I know it brings back memories. I do a lot of them because I have enjoyed singing them with my family throught my 45 years. Songs my granpa sang to my grandmom. Songs my momma sang to me when I was a wee bairn. But mostly I try to sing the songs that will brighten someones day.
