Martyn is one of the finest singers in the folk world, & a skilful guitarist. Iris is an inspired & sensitive accompanist, soloist & tutor on duet concertina & accordion. They have worked together for many years, specialising in British & Australian songs, settings of Henry Lawson poems, & also the songs of Graeme Miles.
The workshop will help singers & players (any instrument) to perform a song in a personal way & to enhance it with accompaniment. Some songs will be sent out in advance but participants are encouraged to bring one of their own songs to work on as well.
