A little video of my band Stillwater Hill doing Dark Hollow. I especially like the espresso machine around 2:00.

"Waterloo Sunset" - (Ray "Cool Ray" Davies of the Kinks) - Loar LM600 mandolin:
Here is a video of me practising New Camptown Races. I've been finding it difficult due to my limited knowledge in the key of Bb. But I'm happy with parts of these breaks so any advice in the right direction is much appreciated.

Hey all, here's some footage of the band that lets me play mandolin,
alas I was a bit nervous with the whole camera preserving the song for posterity thing and had a vice like grip on my pick that I just couldn't seem to shift,
which wasn't the best.
But here it is anyway!
Nicely done Matt!...Cool tune!

Very nice and bouncy - Bravi!
nice job, you sound good to me.
Thanks folks, I always enjoy this thread, nice to have something to add to it.
I recently gave a solo concert on mandolin and mandola (GDAE, European bowl back) for the Boston Classical Guitar Society's "Sunday Sounds Series" at the Hingham Public Library, Hingham MA. Videos of three pieces from the concert, by Jesse Jones (a world premiere), Gabriele Leone, and Oliver Kälberer are available on my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT7...4gbmpwQja6V8lg). Audio, video, and production are courtesy of my good friend Owen Hartford. Thanks Owen!

Another Desperado number from the Great 48: Bluegrass Breakdown.
I had Nina Weisman and Josh Gooding up to play mando with me on this one; Nina is one of the foremost female Monroe Stylists and Josh is all of 19 and a MONSTER!

My take on Brudmarsch - Stenberg. Only been back playing mandolin a couple of days. so stuck to a simple tune. Mandolin is 2011 The Loar LM-220-VS. Pick is Django Picks

A bittersweet new acquisition, I inherited a beautiful old Gibson A Jr. from my dear friend Nancy Thorwardson. I'm honored to have been chosen to be a caretaker of one of her instruments, I'll make sure it continues to make beautiful music in her honor. RIP, Nancy.

Jordan,
Sorry for the loss of your friend.
Wonderfully played, and a wonderful sounding old Gibson.

Lovely...
One more video from my recent solo concert has been posted on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49wt6Y46VME&t=175s. This is BWV1007 (Bach, Cello Suite #1), played on a bowl back mandola (GDAE, East German). Production by Owen Hartford -- thanks Owen!

I decided to take the plunge and upload a video. I'm pretty new to the mandolin but have played the guitar since I was a kid. The tune is The Road To Malvern learned from John Reischman's playing on The Harmonic Tone Revealers album and the mandolin is a Pava A5.
Feel free to let me know what you think. Good, bad or otherwise
I think otherwise (very good).
Regards
Ver' good, Michael, well played - lovely sounding instrument as well.
Sounds good MichaelW !!!
