Clifton Hicks - Devil Song (Killyburn Brae, Child 275)
Banjo Heritage 👉
I learned “The Devil Song“ (aka Old Lady and the Devil, Devil and the Farmer’s Wife, Farmer’s Curst Wife, Killyburn Brae, Devil and the Ploughman, Child 275) from a recording of Bobby McMillon from North Carolina. This piece was also recorded by Bill & Belle Reed as “Old Lady and the Devil.“
My instrument is a fretless tack-head #banjo handmade by myself. Black walnut neck, antique oak pot, Jamaican goat skin from Jeff Menzies, La Bella No. 17 nylon strings.
