Your favourite little known musician? *

Both are great
I’m not sure because they are very diffent sound wise
Fairwell I think is my personal favourite but Any Old Love is a better record
That should help
I don’t think
Get Any Old Love it has Sunlight on the Sill And Shakespeare Hotel
Great singing and writing
I hope you like them as much as I do

 

Marty Brown. Great country singer who sounds at times like Hank Williams Sr.

 

Twenty years ago, I would have said Jeff Chimenti. But I'm not sure that "little known" applies anymore.

 

Phil Palmer - great guitarist, particularly acoustic and slide

 

The great Scott Merritt

 

Singer Bill Ricchini, who released two fantastic albums in the early 2000s. He'd go on to become a member of Summer Fiction in the 2010s, with another couple albums. It's a slim but accomplished discography.

These guys!

 

I'v know of Rava for decades, but he never made much of an impact on me til On the Dance Floor which just knocked me out.

 

Lane Hardin

 

Most of what I listen to is little known to many.
Die Kreuzen- "These Days"...a 2.5 year old video with only 176 views.

 

That's an impressive set of friends.

 

Popa Chubby

 

The great unsung Kevin Breit playing brilliant mutant slide guitar at Alex Lifeson's Orbit Room.

 

Did you buy one of Halfway’s records?

 

Gerard Starkie
English singer/songwriter who has been in Witness, as well as The Blue Aeroplanes, plus some solo stuff.
For me Before The Calm by Witness his finest moment.
A brilliant debut album that’s as beautiful & gorgeous as it is bleak & understated.

I’d imagine this is probably their best known song though -
from their second album, as well as the American Pie 2 soundtrack.

 

Elizabeth & The Catapult

 

Bill Fay...discovered Bill in an old Mojo mag in 1996, the monthly section in back about recommended obscure artists.

UNCUT calls Bill Fay the missing link between Nick Drake, Ray Davies and Bob Dylan

 

Isaac Guillory



In the 60's Isaac was a member of Chicago area band The Cryan' Shames. After active resistance to the Vietnam War, Guillory left the USA in November 1970, acquired a Martin D-35 and lived throughout Europe. He worked as an acoustic solo performer and settled in the United Kingdom. Guillory came to earn a reputation as one of the best guitarists ever. Many guitarists today emulate techniques Guillory evolved in the early 70's while living in the south of Spain. A particular signature technique that he developed was 'hybrid picking', where he would sustain a bass line with a plectrum held between his thumb and first finger, whilst picking chord and melody lines with his second and third fingers.

Brilliant live rendition--"Blues Is Just A Bad Dream/Swinging Little Guitar Man"

Look for when Issac tunes his guitar seamlessly at the 3:46 mark, right in the middle of playing an amazing riff.
