C Joynes
"English acoustic
guitarist
C Joynes uses traditional country-blues and early ragtime
to explore alternative melodic traditions: the English folk-tune; North and West
African music; elements of classical Indian music; proto-minimalist and
impressionist musics from the European classical tradition. His
approach contains a subtle and unassuming experimentation, with a
penchant for reworking over-familiar pieces and stripping them of their kitsch
and cliché, presenting them afresh. Joynes' music is instinctive, placid, and
evokes a certain simplicity and naiveté." - Rhodri Davies
Joynes
has released albums through labels such as Bo'Weavil and The Great Pop
Supplement. He has recorded a live broadcast session for Andy Kershaw
