Subject: Watch out for Grant Baynham
GRANT BAYNHAM is the funniest songwriter and best accoustic guitarist I know.... and yet next to nobody I talk to has heard of him, never mind seen him.
We booked him for our club at Glenfarg several years ago and he took the place by storm.
We booked him for our festival the following year and he took the place by storm.
We have had him back each year since and the club is bulging at the seams when he arrives.
His guitar playing, be it jazz, classical, ragtime or traditional leaves you staring in stunned amazement.
His songs are sooooo funny you will beg him to stop singing to allow your ribs and tear ducts to recover.
You will ache with the laughter for days.
You will miss half the humour in each song... partly because there is so much of it crammed into every line and partly because you will still be roaring with laughter from the last line.

If you enjoy humour and guitar playing at its very best then TRACK THIS MAN DOWN.
He used to work with Esther Ranson on the BBC's 'That's Life' but don't let that put you off.

PS I'm not related to Grant and I'm not on commision for the sale of his new album...I'm just a fan.
