BEN PALEY & TAB HUNTER

Playing Swedish, Irish, Klezmer and American traditional music (and more), Ben Paley (fiddle) and Tab Hunter (guitar) first played together in Brighton with The Aardvarks, later in the infamous bluegrass-rockers The Wild Turkey Brothers. They worked with Damon Albarn and Michael Nyman on the music for the feature film "Ravenous", supplied incidental music for Channel 4, and played many top festivals together. Ben has been playing the fiddle since he was six years old. He has toured widely with his father Tom Paley (founder-member of the seminal New Lost City Ramblers) and recorded with Bing Lyle, Mandragora, The Saw Doctors, Murray Lachlan Young and The New Deal String Band. Tab has gained his breadth of experience as a guitarist, songwriter and jews' harpist playing everything from Irish music to death-blue-metal-grass, through klezmer, jazz, Old Time and Scandinavian folk music.
