Bio
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. Wayfaring Strangers have stood for several years now for musical versatility and harmonious, melodic vocals. Like so many others Wayfaring Strangers began life as a pub duo. This experience helped them develop the ability to play with a lot of drive, almost like a rock band, to the most diverse of audiences. Even though they now play a lot of their own material this attitude has remained, sometimes making it difficult to categorise them. .... Neil Grant comes from Warminster in the South of England. After leaving university he began playing in Pubs in Germany over ten years ago. In 1994 he teamed up for the first time with Martin Ahrndt from Cologne. It soon became clear that the pair would be together for a long time. Martin provides the musical versatility on various instruments which completes the Wayfaring Strangers picture. With their own songs and their interpretations of other sometimes well known songs Wayfaring Strangers have quickly built up a steadily growing fan base. This is held intact by an equally steadily growing mailing list and the use of modern internet technology, to help keep people informed of latest developments. .... The fans of Wayfaring Strangers know that their performance is always worth getting up for. The Press is now starting to sit up and take note: .... '...humour and musicianship guarantee an exciting concert' - WAZ .... '...the two musicians provide constantly new impressions during their live performance' - Westfälischer Anzeiger .... '...perfect vocals and (...) guitar solos' - Wattenscheider Stadtspiegel .... '...a vocal harmony to compare with Simon & Garfunkel.' - Neue Westfälische Zeitung .... .. .... .. .. -

From Sydney Town,
In uni. break,
I drove out west
To earnings make
Onion picking,
On the fields
Of Echuca,
That year’s yields.
After day’s work,
From Y.H.A.,
A group of us
Would not delay
To walk on down
To the dirt rim
Of the Murray,
For a cool swim.
On one such day,
I do declare,
Some three of us
Had a big dare
To swim across,
From state to state,
The wide Murray -
I took the bait.
Yes, foolishly,
I took the bait -
A choice that I
Would come to hate,
For I almost
Did drown that date,
Making the swim
From state to state.

Poem 187 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details): A SOUTH SHIELDS WALKABOUT - AUTUMN 2001
Out of the museum-and-gallery
(Wiser on Cookson and the local way),
Down Ocean Road with, to the right of me,
Its eateries and, left, neat places to stay;
Before, on either side, Marine Parks -
The southern-one a most beautiful place,
Teeming with moorhens, swans, grebes and mallards
In a small lake at a scenic-hill’s base.
Then (holding chips from the parade’s cafe
And, thus, a flock of gulls squawking above)
Onto the South Pier I made my way:
Seeing seaweed over rocks - like a glove -
And high-and-dry sands held from transgression
By growth of grass and the weaving of wood,
Plus, in the dim light of a sleepy sun,
Fishing boats returning to Tynemouth’s hood.
