Does anyone know where Mick French is and how to get hold of him? He played fiddle, mandolin and kazoo as a session musician on the late Vera Johnson's LP, recorded at the Black Horse Folk Club, Amberley, Sussex, in 1974.

We are still looking for Mick French. He played fiddle, mandolin and kazoo as a session musician on the late Vera Johnson's LP, recorded at the Black Horse Folk Club, Amberley, Sussex, in 1974. We are compiling a book of her recorded songs together with CDs of the LPs and would like some input from Mick.

Mick was a member of the Orange Blossom Sound back in the day. He's been living in Gwent for a number of years, still playing for a local Appalachian Dance team (called Brandywine I think). I'm sorry, but I don't have a contact for him.
You could try via the organisers of
Tredegar House Festival .
