From his website:

Clarke Buehling has led the group, The SkirtLifters, for over twenty years. An internationally renowned group of performers celebrated for their outstanding skills and showmanship onstage, The SkirtLifters have authentically recreated the music of the 19th century riverboat, stage and parlor, enlivened by period humor, skits, songs and percussive dance. Clarke is unmatched in his mastery of the three-fingered ‘classic’ banjo style of the late 19th century and has applied his equally strong skills in traditional claw hammer and old-time styles as a workshop presenter at leading folk-schools around the country.
