Something special happens when talented musicians who are also good friends grab some guitars and set about making music. Armed with flat top, resonator and Weissenborn guitars, various slides and a rich batch of original tunes, Michael Hill and Colin John have stepped away from their electric proclivities to create a most exciting, imaginative brew of acoustic sounds and stories. Guitars sparkle and sing with the phrasing and dynamics of Colin’s open tuned fingerstylings and Michael’s chromatically-blue note choices. Hill’s acclaimed songwriting and John’s own considerable skills as a tunesmith merge in heartfelt tales told with the warmly affectionate musical and vocal interaction that are a hallmark of their live performances.
“Fresh Folk Blues” reaches out to transform the listener into a colleague in the sharing of songs between friends, and that’s one of the very best things that folk, blues or any music can do.

Hi there guys - thanks for your friendship! Hello particularly to Michael, how are you going there, mate? You know, when I opened this site I immediately thought - 'hey that's a Michael Hill's tune!' It sounds great, and I hope all is going well with you. I am living in the US now and continuing to have many musical adventures - love to get in touch... love Fiona Boyes xxx
