This tune is popular with both Bluegrass and Texas style fiddlers. My arrangement is probably an amalgam of both genres, but the backing is very much in the Texas fiddle back up style. What is unusual is my instrument of choice to play the tune, my Clareen Tenor Banjo, tuned GDAE. I had this built for me back in 2013 by Tom Cussen whose passion for banjos is only exceded by his attention to detail in construction. He is a highly regarded player himself, of traditional Irish music.
I started playing banjo in 1983( on a Vega Little Wonder) after hearing Irish banjo player John Carty performing. Strangely I was just messing about with the tuning and tried out Grey Eagle more or less as an experiment, and much to my surprise it worked. I've been to Texas,as you can see from the photo at the start of the clip, it's a town in southern Queensland. The strangest thing though is that I could'nt find any Texas fiddle players there..............
