Having sung in a couple of bands, with the last one (a duo) working particularly well, singing acapella isn't so much fun as it used to be...

I'm thinking of taking up dulcimer to accompany myself, and I'm about to start looking for new band members (fiddle and/or piano in Bristol, if anyone's interested).

But these things can take time (few folk fiddlers want to play a predominantly slow-paced set, I've found), and in the meantime I'm resigning myself to solo singing for a while. Which is fine, mostly, when it's unaccompanied trad songs. But some of the songs I'm writing recently don't work so well without accompaniment, and I want to sing more of my own material...

OK, end of frustration sound-off!
