I'm sure there are full time UA singers. Look up Traditions at the Tiger on the net - its a local club and they seem to book that sort of thing.

Moreover I seem to remember a gig where Bob davernport did it unaccompanied, although John Tams on the squeeze box joined him for the last number of the night, which was Memphis Tennessee, aa song collected in the colonies by Charles Edward Berry.

Actually doesn't Dave Fentiman work UA? Yeh he does, and I'm not a traddy, I don't really know about these things.
