Friday 22nd February 2008: GRAHAM ROBINS + CARAMANY
 |
Graham Robins is a powerful and emotive singer–songwriter with a career spanning four decades whose heart and love of performing is still as young as yesterday with passionate and heartfelt songs that draw on years of experience and influences crossing musical borders. ‘If you want some original rootsy music, gutsy singing and understated top class accompaniment with atmosphere by the spadeful, look no further!' Graham made a big impression when he made an impromptu visit to the Crossroads Blues Club - so we booked him! |
 |
Caramany is based on the songwriting partnership of guitarist Alan Garwood and vocalist Sarah L Kaye. Caramany's music draws on a mixture of influences including classic soul, blues and modern folk. Caramany are an entertaining and skilful duo who gave us a great evening when they played the main set at the Crossroads Blues Club - it will be great to see them again. |
