Another oustanding fiddle player, Jamie is a musician whom I first teamed up with at an open mic night in Manchester. We played a number of great shows together including a support with The Lancashire Hotpots, who then took Jamie on as a session musician and occasional live member of the band.

One of the top UK harmonica players and blessed with an awesome steampunk-esque stage presence, Pigman is an outstanding performer and personlity.
He is a keen busker wherever the music takes him, delivering an eclectic and highly unique collection of streetwise jazzy-blues songs and stories.
