Up and coming?

Middle of the bill, sandwiched between The Denvers and The Pretty Things, I was initially unsure about Martin Newnham, his work initially seemed a little brash in comparison to the subtlety of The Denvers, but as his set progressed, I found myself enjoying the vitality of his approach, particularly when his accompanying percussionist switched from snare drum to other forms of percussion and the rhythms became more varied. In my opinion, a vibrant folky sound, an act that may be in competition with the likes of Seth Lakeman and Teddy Thompson.
