This is how I was described by an MC at Chippenham Festival some years ago! While I might feel that there is an element of hyperbole in the phrase, I can’t deny that I have dabbled in most of the elements of the folk world with some degree of success over the years. This talk will chronicle my journey in folk music, dance and song over the past fifty-plus years, including running folk clubs, singing solo and with others, playing and calling for ceilidhs, Morris dancing, MCing and working as a Folk Educator.
