The Banjo is a young and growing instrument and H.L. is no stranger to one. His unique sound is a mix between roots music and modern day licks that will blow you away. His hard driving picking style and slide banjo technique also make him sound unique. He can be heard most of the time all through parts of the historic district of Concord and Noda. You can also catch him playing with his band Attila's Honey.
