Sandy River Belle

In 2016 I first learned a version of Sandy River Belle in a workshop led by Adam Hurt in Gainsborough. He prefered a special tuning: gEADE (which in fact is Sawmill tuning but the 5th string lowered one note). I liked it a lot but during the next years lost the idea of this tuning and usually played the tune in normal G. Now I came upon a tablature book by Kevin Neidig which is all about banjo duets (also available on A.). It´s got 20 well known tunes in standard version and in harmony version:

I´m pretty sure that Blacky and me will try some of these tunes during our upcoming banjo breakfasts. As Sandy River Belle is included in the book, I gave it a try with headphones and Audacity.

Here it is: Sandy River Belle me and myself
