Banjos (plural) on Letterman

Event Details

This past Monday night, Steve Martin appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman, along with Mark Johnson, winner of the 2012 Steve Martin Prize for Excellence in Banjo and Bluegrass Music. Part of this annual award, which carries a $50,000 cash prize, is the chance to perform with Steve on national television.

We will speak with Mark about the experience here at IBMA, but until then, here is video from Monday night’s show.
