WINNER of BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards “Best Live Act” Award 2001, Vin Garbutt's career has spanned over 40 years of constant world wide touring which must make him some kind of elder statesman of folk.
His songs are inspired by the folk tradition at the beginning of his career, but have transformed into gritty social comment and life observations. He is renowned for his hilarious intros but for him his song lyrics are the crux of his performance.
One of the most sought after and best-loved performers on the music scene today, Vin is also an accomplished guitarist and fine whistle player,.
His songs always remain fresh and vibrant, and his repertoire is always changing. Vin is genuinely funny and his quirky observations of life are always very much part of the act, delighting audiences everywhere.
