"That's the place for me".............
OK, so I'm biased, but up here in God's own county we do seem to turn out more than our fair share of super folk artists. Lancs don't do too badly either. It must be all that 'going downt pit' and 'up to mill' for fourteen hours day, nine days a week that does it! These may be cliche's as old as the hills but we do seem to turn out some good ones.
Which brings me to, Sarah Greenwood, John Platt and Dave Bottomley or collectively the band 'String Theory'.
As you can see from this picture they gave the producers of the film 'The Artist' the idea for going 'black and white, but far from 'silent'! What they lack in colour in the photo they more than make up for in performance! Check out, http://www.reverbnation.com/stringtheoryuk and see and hear for yourself. I for one are looking forward to a live session soon and when I do will report back. In the meantime catch them at a club near you. The site has details.
Steve Tilston, fresh from success at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards seems to be turning up all over the shop in the next few months. Find all the details at, http://www.stevetilston.com/. You can also join his mailing list and be one of the first to know up and comming gigs etc.
I really find these artist websites and mailing lists useful.
Going to 'cut a dash' now as a busy day awaits. Will post an update on my 'tenor guitaring' exploits soon but enjoying it no end at the moment. Also hope to have the website up and running by April (thats April this year!!) so fingers crossed for that.
