Meaning
A banjo: a round-bodied stringed instrument with a long neck and a drum-like head, associated with folk, country, bluegrass and American roots music. In conversation it commonly signals folk or country music, banjo playing, or a rustic, down-home mood. It can also convey appreciation for acoustic or traditional sounds. Occasionally it appears in jokes or references tied to banjo stereotypes in comedy. Usage is fairly narrow and often literal; when it stands in for music generally, the intended genre can be ambiguous without context.
