WHO SAID THAT?

“(Graeme is…) one of the best
songwriters in the folk scene. His songs are very approachable and singable” JEZ LOWE “It’s
a pleasure to recommend these strong singers with their unusual repertoire,
good workshop potential, to listeners and festival bookers alike.” ROY HARRIS “Always
good value” JOHN KIRKPATRICK “Their
versatility has to be seen to be believed” The late of BROMYARD FESTIVAL “100%
pure entertainment” SIMON OLIVER of
the HOY AT ANCHOR FOLK CLUB, LEIGH on “efficient,
effective and effervescent” MICHELE READ of WOODWORKS FESTIVAL MARSTON MORETAINE, BEDS. “If you want to know where our musical heritage lives listen to Life and Times – it’s that simple” TIM CARROLL “How
refreshing to find someone writing songs in the tradition, in such a fine
way. If I had the cash I would hire you now!” and CLENNELL
“In
the 21st century, it's reassuring to know that the story telling tradition is
in good hands, at least if Messrs Meek and Goodman have anything to do with
it.” LES PILLING at
NORTH WEST FOLK “What
a great duo they are, absolutely fantastic music. Life and Times are
definitely worth a play any time.” TERRY FERDINAND |
