    There is a Flaming lips song called "Enthusiasm for Life Defeats Existential Fear" on the Fearless Freaks soundtrack that has an awesome banjo part, its not technically hard to play, but it just sounds perfect

    jonatron: some banjo players to check out that are young or groups that have banjo, old crow medicine show avett brothers be good tanyas kitchen syncopators there's more I'm sure, but right now those are a few I can think of. Most fall within the realm of bluegrass kind of stuff, but if you like Sufjan you should like some of them.
