The Banjo Breakdown

I have no idea what a Banjo has to do with bagpipes or the history of this tune, I tried doing some research but didn’t have much success. If anyone knows anything about the origins of this tune, I would love to learn more.

However, one thing I do know is this tune is a lot of fun to play and will always get a crowd going.

While this tune may sound difficult, it’s actually much easier to play than you might think. Here’s a quick preview of me playing through the entire tune on the practice chanter.
