[edit] Who?

D.D. Streetjam was a performer/busker in the Australian folk music scene in the early 90s.

[edit] When and Where

(please see the discussion page for more detail)

  • 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)

[edit] What was it like?

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] ...for example?

The track listing of the aforementioned track, along with two tracks as sample! :)

[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!

[edit] Help me!

It's your turn...

If you think you have any information regarding this elusive performer, please drop me a line (earthnative@gmail.com) or add a comment to the discussion page here :)
