BENJAMIN BASSFORD was discovered by us two years ago<br />

when he stood in at the very last minute for a blues artist who<br />

couldn’t make it. He played in The Globe and had people dancing<br />

in the street outside. He has since become one of the <strong>Aberjazz</strong><br />

favourites – a singer-songwriter and dynamic artist playing a solo<br />

blues guitar, doused and nuanced in blues, roots, folk and country.<br />

HOWLIN MAT last appeared at <strong>Aberjazz</strong> two years ago, where<br />

he really entertained the audience with his blistering set of blues<br />

songs and his stories. A blues artist with a sense of humour. His<br />

hard rocking, boogie blues guitar and vocals guarantee an entertaining<br />

part of the afternoon session.<br />

REMI HARRIS was at last year’s <strong>Aberjazz</strong> festival and we just<br />

had to bring him back quite simply because he is probably one of<br />

the best young gypsy jazz guitarists playing in the country at the<br />

moment; He is an exciting guitarist from the who's unique style<br />

draws inspiration from Gypsy Swing, Jazz, Blues, Rock, Electronic<br />

and World Music. He has toured worldwide as well as performing<br />

at Buckingham Palace, Montreal Jazz Festival, BBC Proms at the<br />

Royal Albert Hall with Jamie Cullum, on BBC 4 Television and live<br />

on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 3.​ Described by Jamie Cullum as<br />

an "incredible guitarist".<br />
