   About Duotone
“One of the best and hardest working cellists in Oxford”
Matt Sage, Big Village

Since first picking up the cello at the age of seven, Barney has gone onto performing internationally with bands such as the Eliza Carthy Band, Chris Wood, and Folk award winning band the Imagined Village alongside Billy Bragg, Eliza and Martin Carthy and Shelia Chandra.
Barney Studied both classical and baroque cello at the Royal Collage of Music and Drama in Cardiff and went onto win a scholarship to study baroque cello performance at the Royal Collage of Music with Jennifer Ward-Clarke.
During his time in London, Barney also ventured into song writing and teaching himself guitar, which led to forming a band made up of other collage students and recorded his debut album at the Royal Collage studios with Toni Castells (Momo Project).
This change of direction continued after leaving collage and since 2007, been performing under the name ‘Duotone’ using live loops combining both the cello and guitar producing carefully crafted songs with a clever use of timing and dynamics, creating the sound of anything from a single voice and guitar, to carefully layered guitars backed by a full string ensemble.

Duotone has gone onto perform ‘Katherine’s Wheel’, an original composition live on tour with the Imagined Village around the UK and is currently supporting the Eliza Carthy Band on her tour of the UK and Ireland.

Barney Morse-Brown is also a full time member of the Kate Garrett Band who recently released their new EP 'King of the Birds' to fantastic reviews and a packed house at the Garrett Brown Music launch earlier this year.

On February 21st Kate Garrett and Barney Morse-Brown launched their joint musical venture, Garrett Brown Music, in Oxford. At the time of the launch, Kate had been battling with breast cancer for some 18 months. Setting up this new business was very close to her heart and getting the Garret Brown Music show on the road while she was still able to work became her aim. The launch evening was a very special event and brought her much joy and satisfaction. Sadly, after this her condition worsened significantly and she passed away in Dorset, her home county, on 22nd May.

GBM was set up as an online home for up to date news and info on Kate and Barney's diverse work across the music world. Since Kate's death, some things have of course had to change. Information about Kate's work can still be found on the site, and her CDs are still for sale. You can still find out about Barney's current projects, look at both Kate and Barney's past work and browse their shop, or book Barney for an event that you are involved in…. Both Kate and Barney grew up in families of craftspeople, from cabinet and instrument makers, to artists and milliners. The musical skills you will read about here continue this tradition. They both crafted music for many years and Barney aims to continue to provide the quality they both aspired to in all that he offers.
