ROGER WATSON
A veteran of influential groups from Muckram Wakes to Boka Halat, and, of course, one of Robb Johnson's Irregulars, as well as director of TAPS (Traditional Arts Project) he brings a wealth of personal knowledge to the table. After his stroke, Roger no longer sings, but is back to playing the melodeon, offering festival workshops, and duoing-up with his old friend Robb Johnson.

ROBB JOHNSON
Robb Johnson says he’s just a bloke with a guitar. He is. But he’s one who has chronicled our times: painting the less-than-sunny political landscape in the moonlight of the personal. Just like a folk singer should.

  • "An English original" - Robin Denselow, The Guardian
  • "Love songs as touching as the political material is sharp." - Red Pepper
  • “One of this country’s most important songwriters (no argument!)” -(fRoots)
  • "There is no songwriter to compare with Robb Johnson operating in the UK" - R2
