I’ve always admired Bob Flesher’s music. There’s a lively, contagious joy in it. His style delivers excitement. I’ve felt the same way about his banjos. They’re bold, stylistic… and punchy! Then I met Bob in person. Now it all makes sense. 🙂
Bob is a bundle of energy. And he’s as creative as he is gregarious! But you better be ready to take a drink from a fire hose if you’re ever fortunate enough to have a sit down chat. Be ready to laugh, too. The guy has got a million stories. I wish I coulda gotten more of ’em about his engraving and inlay work. The guy IS a master! We just kinda got carried away. You’ll see.
Oh! And I’m sure he’s the only Banjo Builder that ever appeared on the Andy Williams Show.
