michael sam wild Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) In the 70s I met some musicians from L ondon at Cleethorpes Folk Festival on the pier. One was called Paddy Marchant, a concertina player. Has anyone any news of him and what he played ?. I seem to remember him doing some tasteful Irish reels. He may have been a pal of Pete Wood who sings and now lives in NE England , and plays EC Edited January 16, 2010 by michael sam wild 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazza Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hello Micheal, I remember Paddy from my trips to the Fighting cocks in Kingston on Thames in the 60s early 70s The last time I met up with him was a Folk Day at Polesden Lacey here in Surrey about 5 Years ago,he was playing English Concertina with A Small Band .I have not seen him since.All the best Bazza.
