His friends describe him as clever and articulate while his wife just wishes he would shift that pile of books next to the bed.
Poets eh ?

If you think you've never heard John Emil,be surprised. As well as touring clubs and festivals on both sides of the Atlantic, John's subtle and innovative slide / dobro playing has enhanced many a major TV series. Preferring Hawaiian lap steel style his playing reaches deep down into the roots of the blues while incorporating bluegrass and country picking. So be prepared for a refreshing interpretation of the old label Americana.
On the same bill is our own finger style maestro Tony Stark so all round an evening of stunning and innovative guitar work.
Tickets available at the venue or contact mjones572@hotmail.co.uk.

Coming on like a latter day beat poet, Sean Taylor has established himself in the vanguard of young singer/ song writers.With unique material evocative of smoky bars and late night cafes, Sean covers the whole emotional range from the personal to social comment all delivered with a vocal intensity that has echoes of both Tom Waits and J.J Cale.
His new album 'The Path Into Blue' has already garnered rave reviews from sources as diverse as Mojo and The Morning Star. The Guardian tips him as 'a man to watch'.
On this occasion Sean's vocals and fiery guitar are perfectly complimented by the double bass of Mike Seal to form a duo that can only remind you of the halcyon days of John Martyn and Danny Thompson.
Support comes from Dave and Chris with their fusion of folk and blues from the Duffield Delta.
Tickets are £8 / £7 unwaged and available from the venue or by contacting mjones572@hotmail.co.uk.
But hurry as capacity is limited to 50.
