They are all amazing clips of film. My favourite is Ronnie Moipolai. She is a wonderful musician who I have watched many times on various websites. Her friend in the baseball cap is KB, is also a wonderful player. Ronnie plays without a 5th string so she can work those bass runs! There are lots of film clips of Ronnie & KB around.
The guy on the balalaika reminds me of a well known musician on our scene!
The guy in Bath with his mechanical guitar is excellent too, but in a more eccentric way than Ronnie & KB.

I don't think Ronnie is a guy. I think Ronnie & KB might be brother & sister and people have got confused about which is which. Guys don't wear scarves around their heads like that in most cases don't have such female looking features. There are some clips of film listed as Ronnie that I am sure are KB because his playing style is slightly different.
When I first discovered Ronnie Moipolai a year or so ago I searched to try and find more information about her/him and couldn't.
Male or female - Ronnie is a wonderful folk musician with a very unusual approach to playing guitar. Reminds me of many old time African American players.
Well this is a first for the MM forum!
