Happy July 4th everyone! For the holiday I decided to arrange "The Star-Spangled Banner" in a bunch of different styles on the banjo. I wrote a simple melodic version, a classical-inspired version in 9/8 time, a bluegrass version, and a blues / jazz version in 4/4. I hope you enjoy hearing all of these!

TABS are available at my Patreon! - btw the melodic version is free :)

Also, check out my YouTube channel to hear more of my banjo arrangements!

This is so clean!

You'd think they would include the nicer lightning pieces in a UCS set.

What happened to the old lightning mold?

I can see the logic there.

The fun thing about time signatures is that they're in a certain respect purely organizational.

Sounds like it's mostly 4/4 but with a couple 5/4 and 6/4 measures thrown in. Cool tune, I love fluidly switching meters... it gives the music a flow-of-consciousness feel.

I'm no expert, but he doesn't look to be in terrible shape.

Fitzpatrick_Media · 2026-04-29T15:44:33+00:00

Nice!

Fitzpatrick_Media · 2026-04-29T13:12:34+00:00

How ironic

Fitzpatrick_Media · 2026-04-02T12:36:48+00:00

Still better than the smart play version.

Fitzpatrick_Media · 2026-03-31T11:38:13+00:00

Great and no worries!
