08 Jun 11 - 06:38 AM (#3166996) Subject: Jeff Warner Green Note London 20th June From: GUEST,folkandroots Pleased to be welcoming Jeff Warner for his first visit to Camden's Green Note on 20th June with support from South London based duo Kit and Cutter performing English Traditional songs, promises to be a fine evening should any of you fine people be in central London on the day. "Jeff Warner is among the United States' foremost performer/interpreters of traditional music. His songs from the lumber camps, fishing villages and mountain tops of America connect 21st century audiences with the everyday lives–and artistry–of 19th century Americans."

"My association with the old songs goes back a long way. My father had me up on stage with him, singing "The Old Chisholm Trail," when I was eight. I got taken along (of necessity) as a boy on some of their later song collecting trips to the mountains and seacoast of North Carolina and the Adirondack Mountains of New York. I'm glad I got to meet rural people for whom traditional song was their main - sometimes only - music. Some of the songs on this album are from those people I met, and got to know better through the recordings they made for my parents. All the others are out of oral tradition, although a couple of them were composed by known authors and then absorbed into the folk. I'm happy to pass them on." There's still time to catch him on his current UK tour - it might well have shared the title Long Time Travelling (sic).
