Banjo Kickoffs and Lead-Ins
A kickoff is a musical phrase that starts off a song and is usually less than a measure long. A lead-in is similar but starts a lead break.
This example starts on G and ends on G, which is the third string open on your banjo. Count the notes as you play them: and two three four one.
Here’s how it sounds:
