NICK HENNESSEY
Pebble & Bone
Wet Foot Music WFM000729 (2001)
Storyteller/singer Hennessey with mainly trad ballads, songs, airs and a brief
story. A bard-like performer who makes you listen, his storytelling reflected in
his choice of material and delivery of lyrics, unaccompanied or just with his
harp and occasional whistle, or on one track each with Phil Beer’s guitar/vocal
or Stuart Gordon’s fiddle.
