Wikipedia has an entry for Banjoists – also lists of famous banjo layers (and 
“celebrities” who also play/played the instrument).

Subject: [LegacyUG] Occupation Description

   I have an individual in my Legacy file that played banjo with a group in the 
1930s.  Do I put, as an event, Occupation with played banjo as the description? 
 Or have others used a different event/fact word for band 
members/musicians/etc.?
   Your thought would be greatly appreciated.

Interesting word, and I needed to look it up in the OED.

It could be used but it is 'a minor occupation' and originated in the 
middle 17th century.

How about entering a new description, such as "avocation"?
