Dave Pegg joined Fairport Convention 56 years ago and fully deserves some sort of medal. They're playing their 49th Cropredy in August and touring the UK later in the year. He talks to us here about the first gigs he ever saw and played which, delightfully, involves … … the night Hank Marvin took him to see Bjork. … an all-nighter in Birmingham with John Mayall, Eric Clapton, Chris Farlowe and Spencer Davis.   … memories of his “school hero” Denny Laine. … the fine art of getting it together in the country: life at the Angel pub in Little Hadham – “flea-bitten, enough hot water for one person and a lorry crashed through the wall into Dave Swarbrick's bedroom”. … the link between ticket sales and high blood pressure. … what not to do when you meet McCartney. … a night on the whisky with Rick Danko that ended in hospital. … how a band lasts 58 years without falling out. … the Island albums that made their reputation but never earned them any money. … unsung Birmingham acts: Denny Laine & the Diplomats (Bev Bevan on drums), Steve Gibbons in the Uglys, Jeff Lynne in the Idle Race. … narrowboats, pewter ale jugs, outdoor settees, Matty Groves, Meet On The Ledge and other cornerstones of the Cropredy experience.… Dave Swarbrick's “small holding” and further assorted knob gags. Fairport Convention tickets here: https://www.davepegg.co.uk/gigs/fairportgigs/ Cropredy tickets here: https://www.fairportconvention.com/Find out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Geoff Everett I this episode I will be talking to a well-known guitarist from my neck of the woods, we talk about Geoff's collaborations with many great names from British music, Geoff also explains what impact the milkman from the Coop can have on your life. In the early 1980s, more UK and Scandinavian tours followed and Everett was asked by Tony Ellis to join The Cafe Racers which included rhythm guitarist David Knopfler, following the departure of his brother Mark Knopfler. At this time he joined Gerry McAvoy and Brendan O'Neil from the Rory Gallagher band in a three piece band called The Mosquitoes and played informal rhythm and blues gigs in pubs and clubs around London. In the early 1990s, Everett formed a rock funk outfit called The Absolute who attracted a large following. During the late 1990s he toured with "A Band Named Sioux", The Cruising Mooses and The Rob King Band. The Mosquitoes also reformed as The Fabulous Mosquitoes. He also began to perform with his own Geoff Everett Band, which includes bassist Pete Shaw, also various drummers including Paul Robinson who has worked with Paul McCartney and Sam Kelly who played a short stint with Gary Moore. During 2009 and 2010 the Geoff Everett Band performed in the UK, Greece, France and the Netherlands. During 2011 the band released the album Adult Show and kenttv.com broadcast an earlier concert recorded in Meteor, Greece. In 2014 The Geoff Everett Band finished recording a studio album The Quick and The Dead which featured guitarist Albert Lee, drummer Brendan O'Neil and vocalist Mollie Marriott (daughter of Steve Marriott), fiddle player Dave Swarbrick, keyboardist Tim Hinkley, harmonica player Alan Glen and saxophonist Gary Barnacle. The album was mastered by Jon Astley and released in the same year. 2015 saw the release of Geoff Everett's studio CD album "Cut & Run". Also in 2015 the song "Bad Bad Man" from the album "The Quick and The Dead" was included on the Sci-Fi Horror film Tremors 5: Bloodlines released by Universal Studios. The song is used as incidental music[1][2] as Burt Gummer is flying into the exotic location of South Africa to scenes of wild African animals to fight a new batch of Graboids. 2018 has seen the release of Geoff Everett's Album "Night Patrol". The Album features harmonica player Alan Glen and saxophonist Gary Barnacle. Everett appeared in the line up of Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages (after the departure of Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page).[3] Other associations include Alan Lancaster, David Knopfler, Bob Henrit from The Kinks, Sam Kelly, Jim Russell, Carl Palmer, Gerry McAvoy and Brendan O'Neil from the Rory Gallagher Band, Jim Leverton, Kim Beacon from String Driven Thing, Ian Paice, Gordon Huntley and Bobby Millar an early member of Supertramp. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoff_Everett http://geoffeverett.co.uk/ To support the podcast and get access to features about guitar playing and song writing visit https://www.patreon.com/vichyland and also news for all the creative music that we do at Bluescamp UK and France visit www.bluescampuk.co.uk   For details of the Ikaro music charity visit www.ikaromusic.com   Big thanks to Josh Ferrara for the music

Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly radioshow in Amsterdam, focussed on artists who write their own songs. This week your host was Ro Halfhide. A Montréal-born Trinidadian-Canadian, Zaynab comes to the music scene with a wealth of cultural and musical diversity. Her recent Live EP (2018), is the debut to her career as a fronting singer-songwriter where she draws musical and rhythmic inspiration from her Caribbean roots and merges with folk, her heart and soul. Her voice is sweet, unaffected and naturally blended, and carries a strong sense of rhythm. Zaynab grew up in a large family of musicians, specializing on Steelpan, and got an early start to the life of an artist. Being the youngest of the lot of six children, the formula was already set by the time she was six. Zaynab was performing throughout Eastern Canada with her family, the "Von-Trapps of Steelpan", and gaining invaluable life lessons. Now, in addition to steelpan, Zaynab has grown into a sensitive, dynamic and well-rounded musician and is an equally talented percussionist, vocalist, songwriter and drummer, holding a drum-major degree from Humber College. Over the years, Zaynab has had the opportunity to perform with a variety of local and international artists including Alysha Brilla, Jason Wilson, Martin Carthy, Dave Swarbrick and Pee Wee Ellis, and performing at notable festivals including Woodford Folk Festival (Australia), Hillside Festival (Canada) and Celtic Connections (Scotland). On her own front, Zaynab took her Live EP tour on the road to Western Canada in September 2018 and over to Eastern Canada with Arlene Paculan in November 2018, performing in both house concerts and local live music venues. As for 2019, Zaynab is working towards releasing a series of singles, a new EP and tour dates, so far, in both Canada and USA. When she isn’t performing, Zaynab runs music workshops at various schools within the multiple school boards in Ontario. Her workshops are delivered using steelpan, percussion or band instruments with the goal being more than learning repertoire. Her workshops run in schools with higher numbers of newcomers to Canada, for groups with special learning abilities, as part of health and wellness conferences and for overall team building and strengthening of non-verbal and nonviolent communication. She recently attended a Musicians Without Borders Training of Workshop Leaders program, in Ede, to help enhance her workshop leading abilities. In a realistic world, Zaynab would be able to integrate touring as a performer and running music-based workshops along the way.
