Abbie Lathe and her band are fantastic. And I'd second Vicki Swann and Jonny Dyer too.

It might be unlikely, but if Thomas Leeb ever comes across here, grab the opportunity with both hands - you won't see a better acoustic guitarist than TL.

Just a thought, billybob - it's all very well asking who you'd book, but it might be an idea to let us know where you are? I'm sure there's a few of us who might want to come over if you're booking someone worth the trip, depending on how long the trip is of course...
