Summary: <p>Welcome to Get Up in the Cool: Old Time Music with Cameron DeWhitt and Friends! This week’s friend is Patrick Heavner, the CEO and founder of Pisgah Banjo Company. If you’re a banjo nerd, this episode’s for you: we talk a lot of shop. I’m actually pretty ignorant when it comes to how banjos are made, so it was really cool to talk to someone who’s passionate about this whole other aspect of Old Time music. I sometimes forget that someone made my instrument, and they’re actually very responsible for my sound, even though I like to take all the credit. </p> <p>In our interview, Patrick shares his philosophy as a business owner, and it really mirrors the spirit of the music that he’s enabling, which was really encouraging to hear. I love about this show that I have these talented, amazing guests, who are also generous and full of gratitude, and Patrick is no exception.</p> <p>Tunes we’ll play:<br> What’re You Gonna Do With the Baby<br> Chicken and Dumplings<br> Jenny Run Away in the Mud in the Night<br> Tater Patch<br> Cat on a Leash<br> Bonus Track: June Apple</p> <p>Pisgah Banjo Company: <a href="http://pisgahbanjos.com/" rel="nofollow">http://pisgahbanjos.com/</a><br> Balsam Banjo Works: <a href="http://balsambanjoworks.com/" rel="nofollow">http://balsambanjoworks.com/</a><br> Support Get Up in the Cool on Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/getupinthecool" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/getupinthecool</a></p>
