IRISH BANJO LESSONS
with ENDA SCAHILL
ABOUT ENDA
Enda is the co-winner of the prestigious 2022 Steve Martin Banjo Prize and one of the most accomplished and recognised banjo players of his generation, an innovator who bridges the traditions of Irish music and the dynamic folk music of America. His rise from session musician to his debut album Pick It Up and on to founding one of Ireland’s greatest roots bands We Banjo 3, has been grounded in quiet professionalism and ever-expanding musicianship.
Enda is a multiple time national champion on tenor banjo. Over many years he has developed a technically demanding instrumental style and has become a thought leader on banjo instruction and technique. And supplementing his touring band work, he’s now a mentor, educator and leader in online music instruction.

Hello!
I’m Enda
I’m from Galway in Ireland, a passionate teacher of all things Irish music and Irish banjo, a nutty obsessed fly fisherman, a baffled father of one teenage boy and founding member of roots super group We Banjo 3.
I’m constantly striving to innovate and find new ways to instruct on banjo technique, and I’m a hapless open-minded student of banjo tech and the world of maintenance and set up!
“This the premier destination for anyone looking to master the Irish tenor banjo. With a rich library of video lessons, methodically explained techniques, and exercises, students have unlimited access to hundreds of resources. Join over 400 talented musicians worldwide in Enda’s Patreon banjo community and learn from a true master”

What People Are Saying About My Patreon
-
Enda’s Patreon turned out to be everything I was hoping for and more! The lessons he creates have something for players of all levels, and working through them every month has really improved my playing. I highly recommend his Patreon to anyone who wants to take their playing to the next level or who just wants to be a part of an amazing community that loves Irish trad music.

I'm very happy to endorse Enda's professional, positive, fun and heartfelt approach to teaching and sharing his love of Irish music and the adventures of playing tenor banjo

I’m a longtime musician and my world of music began to get pretty monotonous. I found Enda’s Banjo group and I find that we not only have one of the best teachers of the Irish Traditional Music craft, but a burgeoning community that we can connect with about our shared passion for Irish music and banjo. I feel so encouraged and accepted by this group. Also, we get to chat with legends like Gerry O’Connor and banjo maker Tom Cussen (Clareen Banjos). It’s a magical community and I am always excited to learn more and more!

I am most definitely a better banjo player after my first year on Enda's Patreon, and I have made very warm and supportive (and often hilarious) connections with new friends all over the world via the Discord community

Enda's videos provide an excellent resource for musicians of all levels. He starts with the simple notes of the tune and then shows us how to methodically add in ornamentation and variations. His teaching style is relaxed and informative. On Discord and Zoom he is unbelievably available to help us all the time!

Of all the internet material I've checked out relative to banjo or mandolin, this is far and away the best. The excellence of how Enda teaches is how meticulous he is at teaching techniques that can be applied to all types of music.
