A few weeks ago Dan Walsh played at the Hare and Hounds on one of @moseleyfolk‘s Lunar Society events. I heard he was great but I missed it as I was at Symphony Hall for the excellent Transatlantic Sessions.
Last night though I caught some of his fine banjo playing, accompanied by Will Pound on harmonica on Moseley’s own, Janice Long’s, Radio 2 show. It’s available on iPlayer for a week the next week.
During the show they let slip that they will be playing at the Moseley Folk Festival in September. Hardly surprising, but good news. First sneak peak at any of the line-up I’ve been able to glean.
This is my favourite track from his quite excellent album, Tomorrow’s Still To Come.

I second this! Amazing amazing performer. I saw this gig and was totally blown away by it all. Funky banjo, hypnotic Egyptian and Arabic stuff, a bit of jazz and blues, some good old bluegrass and even an outrageous slap-guitar version of You Can Call Me Al. Pure class!
