Brian Peters--CANCELLED (Special Event)

Cancelled due to the VOLCANO in Iceland, which has made it impossible for Brian (or anybody else in England) to travel to America this week.

Compelling singer, squeezebox ace and guitarist, with traditional songs, ballads and tunes, and who knows what else.

Brian Peters is one of the English folk scene?s great all-rounders: a compelling singer, a top squeezebox player and a skilled guitarist. Brian is one of the country?s best anglo-concertina players and is just as good on melodeon, while he?s also internationally-known as a singer of traditional ballads. He delivers a repertoire of startling variety, so alongside those classic songs from the tradition, and lively English dance tunes, you can expect to hear newer songs, his own instrumental compositions, and wild squeezebox excursions into ragtime or blues. His stage act bristles with energy and wit.

Brian has played major folk festivals in Britain, Australia, New Zealand, the USA and Canada, as well as touring extensively in Europe. He?s collaborated with many British and American musicians, is in demand as an instrumental teacher and workshop leader, and has recorded several highly-acclaimed CDs. ?A singer, guitarist and melodeon player of rare ability?. an unusual repertoire, and unusual conviction in singing it?
