  • Nemo saw him busking in Canberra circa 1992 (and bought the tape you see here)
  • Ian saw him at the Maleny folk festival (now Woodford Folk Festival) in 1993/1994)

His musical style is celtic. Predominantly styled after jigs and reels, but with some progressive/newage elements to the sound too (notably atmospheric spacey sounds)

The instrument was, as far as recalled, an electric (or at least, amplified) lute - or similar small stringed instrument.

[edit] Why does this page exist then?

The music is great and I'm curious to find out more, if I can. Hence, this page.

The Cassette tape is "© Vince Clark". However this is a particularly unhelpful name to google for with regards to music since it's shared with a founding member of Depeche Mode!

It's your turn...
