More of wot I have heard…


Fake Thackray is an artist who has concentrated in keeping the talent of the late, great Jake Thackray alive with his tribute act. The alternatively wonderfully un-PC comic or heartbreakingly poignant songs song in the particularly recognisable style were all fabulously rendered and linked together with stories and jokes on a very entertaining evening. It prompted me to go and download the complete collection of Jake’s songs soon afterwards.

Scottish Singer Ewan McLennan is an accomplished guitar player with classical roots and a fine finger action that complemented his lilting voice.

Lee Collinson played the guitar wonderfully with a bluegrass style and kept us entertained with his charming wit and generous personality.
