The Banjo-Rama is scheduled for April 8-11, 2010.   Please mark your calendars now for April 8-11, 2010 

Each year the Sacramento Banjo Band sponsors an annual banjo music festival known as Banjo-Rama.  World class banjo stars are featured as soloists and in ensembles.  Eddie Peabody, probably the most famous banjo player ever, performed at the very first Banjo-Rama.  In addition to banjo virtuosos, there are several exciting west coast banjo bands.  It's quite a musical spectacle that could just as well have been named the banjo Olympics.  These musicians are not just plucking chords like grandpa used to do on the back porch!  They are genuine pros!  Their fingers and hands are sizzling hot, moving faster than the eye can follow, playing everything from classical to popular music.  You'll be surprised and delighted at their imaginative arrangements, versatility, and precise execution.  Primarily 4-string banjos are played at Banjo-Rama. Banjo-Rama proceeds are a benefit for charities like the Shriners Hospitals for Children.
