About This Song
Foggy Mountain Breakdown was written by Earl Scruggs and became one of the most iconic banjo tunes in bluegrass history, especially after being featured in the 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde. It's the tune that introduced three-finger banjo picking to mainstream America and remains the ultimate showcase piece for Scruggs-style banjo.
