That is the fabulous Suzanne Gekker playing all three of the wind instruments. One of the great features of this site is the ability to embed these videos from youtube, but it is a bummer that you lose the description text. Answer to your question is: bass clarinet.

Yeah Will, like Bill said it's the bass clarinet. Thanks man. She arranged the whole thing. Super fun to listen to.
I just love how banjo gelled together with rhythm guitar as one rhythm track. Playing and driving the same beat but voicing and the tone are different enough to enrich the whole rhythm section. It gave me ideas 🤣 I gotta say. Have a budget for a banjo Bill 😉?

Thank you! Feels like we're late in the game with this kinda stuff but this thing is nowhere near over yet so... It's nice to see a finished product.
Was the lady in the lower right corner playing a bassoon?
Wonderful ensemble blend with a nice relaxed swing... and surprise! A banjo solo!
