Mick Ryan and Paul Downes, Edinburgh Folk Club, Wednesday 26th November 2008



Arguably, this might not be the easiest gig to sell up here but here goes......

Mick Ryan is known on the folk scene as a fine singer of traditional and original material. Folk Roots described him as "definitely the most underrated singer in the country".

Paul has a rich musical background that has progressed through working with Phil Beer, The Arizona Smoke Revue, Pete Seeger and, currently, The Joyce Gang.

Eight albums with bands, three highly acclaimed solo albums and over one hundred and fifty session credits have still left time for Paul to tour every concert venue, theatre and festival in Britain, plus many tours in the USA and Europe. Cabaret in the West Indies and newsreading on US radio are but two other strings to his guitar.

However, I'm sure all the "singy", "Middle bar at Sidmouth" types will love this duo. :-))
So, please come out in force for this one.
