Cody Kilby & Kenny Smith: Billy in the Lowground at Banjo Ben's Cabin Camp!

Cody & Kenny were special guests of mine at my Nashville Cabin Camp! This performance was one from the guitar session they taught. If you'd like to know more about Cabin Camps, click here: store.banjoben...

Finally, a version that does not claim to set a high-speed record.
Thanks for sharing your music with us, Cody & Kenny!
And thanks a lot for posting, Ben.

I quit playing Bluegrass because of everybody wanting to play at 5000RPM.
Sometimes it’s good just to put the brakes on.

[@michaelbarnett2527]

As Ricky Skaags once said, Cody Kilby is a “ gun for hire”. He’s gotten even better since then…

[@user-bh7fj7hq8u]

Kenny Smith & Cody Kilby, two Super Guitar Pickers, showing their great class. ❤🫲🏻🫲🏻🫲🏻

[@billdedrick1914]

These two along with Bryan Sutton are the cleanest bluegrass players and get the most tone out of each note. Phenomenal talent.

[@acousticguitar130]

We need a full concert of nothing but those two!!!!!!
Wow , ,,, !!!!!!!
Doesn't get any better

[@andrewjbloom]

I'm new to flatpicking and this blew me away

[@tonekilltech]

Boy howdy! Kenny went all in on that Bb at 1:09. I had to rewind half a dozen times just soaking it in. That's worth a month of lessons.

[@iloverumi]

Or the Am to Ab7 at 2:01

[@tonekilltech]

@@iloverumi oh yeah, that's a good one too!

[@Jay-lr3me]

@@iloverumi do you know why that works there so well? I’m trying to understand the theory so I can apply it to other things. Also he seems to play an Ab7b5 if I’ve transcribed it right. Thanks hope you’re well

[@LibbysBluegrassVideos]

Two of my favorite guitar players right there. What an amazing video performance. Thanks Ben for sharing the joy of Cabin Camp with those of us who couldn't be there! You're making it look plenty tempting with all these videos, for sure!

[@iloverumi]

i'll watch these all week mr. ben

[@boriskrizan7447]

Love Kenny's playing, he is not showing off at all, beautiful tone, very recognisable signature sound.

[@michaelbaldwin6543]

[@ronaldhowell4146]

[@kendylhoudyshell1399]

Love your flat picking gentlemen, you make it look so easy. Very inspiring 😉

[@rstarace52]

[@mikesheptuk5203]

4:10 is something that just lives in ya man, that’s awesome. Great video, two of my favorite pickers for sure.

[@bluegrasspointofview5191]

[@acousticguitar130]

He's a beast

[@GunnarSalyer]

Actually that particular bend isn't that hard

[@emersonlangstaff1527]

Kenny's my favorite, but love Colby's style as well. What a duo!

[@colfaxpersimmionfestival202]

[@dodgermartin4895]

also known as "Cody Killed-Me"

[@acousticguitar130]

Captain Winfield

[@oatgibson]

First i thought he was Mark agnesi lol

[@nayrreztiewhcs1225]

Cody will never be the future of Bluegrass for lack of hair and tattoos and songs about meth in a baggie

[@jasonodell79er]
