John Sutherland, assisted for a time by his wife Susan, entertained an attentive, appreciative audience at the Tin Hut last night.
John and Susan walk that musical line where folk, Blues and country meet and share a common ancestry. Their acoustic set featured the songs of Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly, and Eva Cassidy, among others, but all were treated with equal respect and had the feeling of “tradition”, for want of a better word, running through them.
It was a relaxed, very enjoyable evening and, hopefully, won’t be the last we see of these two.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get better than Talk to Your Daughter, along came Walkin’ Blues!
