CROWS

Friday 30th September 2022​

​

‘Crows’ were a popular feature of the folk scene from 1978 to 1988. The combination of four strong voices and expert musicianship gave them a simultaneously unique yet broad appeal. Two of the original line-up remain in the revived band, Mick Ryan and Dave Bordewey. Crows are now joined by Pete Harris (vocals, guitar, bouzouki) adding a unique blend of power, warmth and harmony to the band's vocal mix. Dave Bordewey adds his astonishing high harmony lines and plays fiddle and mando-cello. And finally, the inimitable Paul Downes on guitar, banjo, mando-cello and harmonies completes these highly respected performers and the new ‘Crows’.
