Fuck it, make me a video.

I quite like American folk - there are some surprising similarities between it and Irish folk.  I never played it much professionally - my paying customers were USian tourists who wanted to hear Irish music (I don't perform much these days).

I don't put images of myself online, sorry.

Awww! That's disappointing. My buddy (who is surprisingly inept at guitar) was pretty good at Irish folk, and I wanted to hear some genuine shit.

What's the deal with an Irish dude playing an American instrument like the banjo? Is there an Irish/kiwi version of banjo playing? Also, 4 or 5 string?
