Chris O’Connor has had an enduring fascination with the blues of the 1920s and 30s masters, from players such as Son House, Willie McTell and Blind Blake. Chris uses a small-bodied six string guitar, a rich deep 12 string and a well-worn steel bodied national resonator to accompany his renditions of vintage blues songs.
In performance, the varied repertoire ranges from string-snapping delta blues to hypnotic minor key laments, gospel shouts, slide guitar instrumentals and ragtime songs with sparkling finger picked accompaniment.
