Colton Crawford of The Dead South | Deering Live
Colton Crawford is the banjo player from Canadian roots music four-piece, the Dead South - A rock band without a drummer, a bluegrass band without a fiddler. Their sound, built on a taut configuration of cello, mandolin, banjo, and guitar, speeds like a train past polite definitions of acoustic music into the grittier, rowdier spaces of the bluegrass world.
Colton is a Deering Artist who plays both clawhammer and three-finger style, using a Vega Little Wonder and Saratoga Star as his main tools.
Colton can also be found regularly on Twitch, where he can be found covering metal songs on banjo. Who doesn't love that?
Love The Dead South! I see then live whenever I have an opportunity.
I like deering, nice banjos, but they dont ring like a banjo should, the ring is limited, not traditional old timey per se . Just my ipinion .
I have two Deering banjos and like both of them.
