Straight forward D,G, and C pattern in standard tuning. Hammer ons and pull offs in a traditional Bluegrass style.

I admit, playing like that takes discipline. That playing style is very stiff, and there is very little room for error. Most of the time you want your picking hand to be fluid and loose, but to get that banjo like twang you have to pop each note.

I love to tone of the Martin that kid is playing. He has talent, even if it isn't something I personally enjoy. I would record a session with him just to see what he is capable of.

I shared that video with my daughter and she looked the guy up. He's quite a bit older now, has won awards, etc. Made a real name for himself. It's funny because the youtube channel i pulled that from only had like 6 or 8 videos (and just of him).

Billy has made a big name for himself flat picking. It's not something everyone can do.

I can't lie, I have joked about Bluegrass music my entire life. I cannot deny the raw talent required to play any of it though. The speed alone is impressive. Watch a banjo, mandolin, and other players while knocking out a Bluegrass song. They don't even sweat. They are normally laughing and having a good time jamming.
 
Bluegrass music will get my toe to tapping, but I wouldn't want 3 straight hours of partying to it.
 
When I hear Bluegrass, the movie Deliverance immediately pops in my head.

Boy, you sure do have a purdy mouth.

🤢🤮
