Leon Hunt n-tet

The Leon Hunt n-tet
Thursday 23 February, 7.30pm
Tickets £12 |£10 Free to members of Holburne Contemporaries

“Everything is just a little bit faster than it should be”. A night of 1940s style blue grass with 4 piece band The Leon Hunt n-tet featuring Bath based banjo player Leon Hunt, Jason Titley (guitar), Ben Somers (bass and vocals), Joe Hymas (mandolin).

As one reviewer once observed ‘being the best 5-string banjo player in the UK must be rather like being the fastest ‘fast-bowler’ in Virginia’.

Leon Hunt has, for more than a decade, continued to confound that notion (and the many stereotypes that attempt to confine the 5-string banjo to Bluegrass music) by making his living playing alongside some of the world’s top musicians from a number of musical styles, backgrounds and disciplines.
