"The Deco King is not only a great banjo for the road. I have also
used it in the studio and found it could deliver what I wanted."

Chris Quinn

Chris Quinn, banjo player for the bluegrass super group The Foggy Hogtown Boys and 2007's banjo player of the year at the Canadian Bluegrass Awards, is a Recording King endorser.

 

Bill Monroe once declared to a cheering crowd, "Mr. Quinn, yer a mighty fine banjo player." And ever since, Chris has continued to make a name for himself in bluegrass.

 

With The Foggy Hogtown Boys, Chris' solid right hand provides a driving stream of eighth notes that pour across the rock steady rhythms of the band. Whether it is a bluesy romp, a plaintive ballad or a pulverizing breakdown, Chris' banjo will be right where it is needed.

 

Chris is a first call session musician who, in addition to countless movie, television, radio and commercial soundtracks, has performed on more than 75 recordings as a side-man or featured artist. He has performed at festivals and concerts all over the U.S. and Canada.

 

As a veritable scholar on bluegrass, he has been a frequent guest on radio and has been featured in documentary film. He has also penned liner notes and biographies for several musicians.

 

Chris Quinn endorses the Recording King Deco King banjo. “I am really pleased to be able to work with Recording King," says Quinn. "I think that these are great banjos and the price makes them all the more attractive."

 

"I finally have a banjo that I feel confident about travelling with when I head to the airport. The Deco King is not only a great banjo for the road. I have also used it in the studio and found it could deliver what I wanted. It has a deep punchy 4th string and it is really clear and crisp up the neck.”

 

“I also love the design! I am a sucker for Art Deco so when (Recording King product designer) Greg Rich asked if I would like to endorse Recording King, I quickly told him I was interested in the Deco King. Thanks to Greg and all the good folks at The Music Link.”

 

Chris Quinn and The Foggy Hogtown Boys are regularly touring throughout Canada. Check their website to see Chris in action with his Deco King!
