Details of John Fairhurst
Artist / Band
Details
A John Fairhurst show is a true testimony of his versatility, armed simply with his trademark resonator or supported by the flair of Toby’s percussion, his music takes the audience on a musical voyage of spell binding improvisations drawing freely from a rich tapestry of influences that span from the Mississippi to the Ganges and all that is worthy in between. Fronted by their eponymous songwriter, the duo draw freely from rock, blues and world music, with a penchant for slide guitar and through his distinctive deep growling voice, the songs, delivered in pure raconteur style, narrate the hardships of a life on the road and the bleakness of our times. In July 2017, John signed an new publishing deal with successful independent publishers Wipe Out Music, helping him garner much wider international interest. Acoustic Guitar Magazine USA recently hailed Fairhurst as one of the top three Resonator guitar players worldwide - the only European on the list. A new album is currently in production; a real melting pot of diverse musical influences and styles. He will again be working with his long term go-to producers Alex Beitzke and producer Bradley Spence (Radiohead, Prince, Florence and the Machine, Stereophonics, Iron Maiden, The Strypes, Kasabian). This promises to be a long awaited follow up to his highly regarded 2014 breakthrough album, ‘Saltwater’ and is due for release in the autumn.
