Banjo Heritage 👉 / cliftonhicks
In 1872, Sam Stewart was a seventeen-year-old violin student and heir to a family fortune worth several million dollars. However, upon hearing banjo music for the first time (at a minstrel show in Philadelphia), Stewart became obsessed with the instrument, and had soon hired none other than George Dobson to teach him the secrets of the art. By 1878 he was performing regularly, and billing himself as 'The Artistic Banjoist.'
"Until his premature death on 6 April 1898, Stewart remained a commercial and public relations giant. His multifaceted career illustrates how an instrument once marginalized because of its association with the lower classes became iconic of American culture at all levels, and in particular of middle-class pretensions to gentility." - Gura & Bollman, America's Instrument (UNC Press, 1999).
