Description
To celebrate and sample fingerstyle acoustic guitar on the roots music scene in Britain today, a sample of nine musicians took part in recording sessions to lay down select songs from their repertoire with a blend of Folk, Blues, Rhythm and Blues, Americana.
APM invited the artists to lay down a couple of choice songs or tunes they played regularly in their live shows; so we could record live in the studio, each performing their songs in one go. No overdubs. No pressure !?! Three studios were chosen according to location of the artists, a little 'a la' Alan Lomax, reaching from Bristol, Birmingham, York, North London (originally Spain), Bromley, Rainham, Tunbridge Wells.
The resulting album is part of the answer to the open question where does this music come from and what inspired the artists to play in this style. A companion film provides the rest of the answers. It comprises interviews conducted with each artist to find out their influences and views on the music, where they got it from and where it has taken them.
