Music types: Americana, Acoustic
Description:
We are a UK based Americana/acoustic duo with guitar and fiddle. I'm from California, he's from the southwest of England. I am a songwriter, he is consider one of the best and most original fiddle players in the southwest. We won a Unsigned Artist competition at a major music festival in the UK, are negotiating a deal with a good indy label, and are going on tour across the US in spring 2010... we are driving in a tour bus from California to NY and will be stopping to play in Flagstaff - we just need to find the place to play!!!


Band Members:
An award winning songwriter, Katy Boyd is a child of the American folk music scene. Playing live since the age of 14, she won the (now) West Coast Songwriter’s Association’s annual song writing contest and ran off to England for a record contract. The deal fizzled out, as they often do but Katy stayed in the UK. A multi instrumentalist, she plays guitar, banjo, congas, and the bodhran. She was inspired to start playing her original music live again when she met Benny Wain playing congas and acoustic guitar in a top UK function band.

Benny Wain has been gigging since he was 12 years old. He was born into a musical family and started playing fiddle with his family’s folk band ‘The Sydling Stompers’ at a very early age. Over the years Benny has shared a stage with the Oyster Band, Shane McGowan and the Popes, the Dubliners and Davey Arthur. He has played all the great festivals from Glastonbury to the Isle of Wight. Benny bright red Bridge Electric Violin is the result of his recent endorsement by Bridge Violins.
