Hi! My name is Ron Hinkle, and I'm a Jazz Banjoist and entertainer. I grew up in the banjo world; my father Myron Hinkle was a professional musician and the founder of both the Seattle Banjo Club and the Grays Harbor Banjo Club. I joined the club at age 12, and I've been playing for 36 years now. I have been a featured performer at banjo shows and Trad Jazz festivals throughout the West. I have also been the banjoist for several Trad Jazz bands over the years. I am currently an Army Musician (I also play clarinet, saxophone, and rhythm guitar), and am stationed in Seoul, South Korea.
