PAUL DOWNES - May 3rd

He's still too young to be described as a veteran but Paul has been creating waves on the folk circuit for many years now. He first came to prominence during his partnership with Phil Beer in a duo which stormed through the nation's clubs and festivals - then he was part of The Arizona Smoke Revue supergroup. Since then he combined solo work with collaborations with Pete Seeger, Show Of Hands, The Joyce Gang and Mick Ryan.

Although his reputation rests on his astounding guitar playing he is aslo a very fine singer with a singular repertoire of seldom heard songs, many of them his own.
