27 Apr 10 - 01:37 AM (#2895065) Subject: American Songster: Larry Hanks' UK Tour From: babypix For those of you across the pond who have never had an opportunity to hear Larry Hanks of beauteous bass vocals, sparse and tastefully guitar picking, and revered Jew's Harpery; you'll be glad to know that he is embarking on a rare UK Tour 14 June- 14 July 2010. Please check website for details: www.larryhanks.com For those of you unfamiliar with the repertoire of this much-beloved performer (who has been singing and playing his unique style of American Traditional and composed songs for over 50 years!) you will find hearing him a moving experience-- tender singing of carefully-selected songs of the American West, labor songs, songs of Utah Phillips, Larry Penn, and Malvina Reynolds, and much more...-- and all in sincerest homage to his inspiration, the late Sam Hinton. Looking forward to seeing you at clubs as festivals soon! |

I've known him for more than 30 years - he embodies the essence of traditional American music - Go and see him, you won't be disappointed, and will curse yourself for missing him when your friends tell you how good he was. |
